TV performance of Gavin Friday on Dutch TV show “2 Meter Sessies“ on September 14, 1995. Gavin Friday is an Irish singer and songwriter, composer, actor and painter, best known as a founding member of the post-punk group The Virgin Prunes. 'Caruso' is of his 1995 record “Shag Tobacco“. It's a tribute to Enrico Caruso, the Italian opera singer. ===================== About 2 Meter Sessions ==================== Based in the Netherlands, 2 Meter Sessions is an independent, ongoing (new) music platform with a great legacy, started in 1987. Monthly we film 3 to 4 sessions with promising and breakthrough acts from all over the world. Many well-known acts have visited the show; from James Taylor, Elliott Smith and David Crosby to Damien Jurado, Ben Howard and Josh Ritter, via Radiohead, Nirvana, Coldplay and Foo Fighters. Archive footage can regularly be seen in (theatrical) documentary movies, like “Mystify: Michael Hutchence” (with footage of our session with INXS, filmed in 1997), “Heaven Adores You” (with footage of our session with Elliott Smith, filmed in 1998) and “All I Can Say” (with footage of our session with Blind Melon, filmed in 1993). The show started back in 1987 by radio presenter Jan Douwe Kroeske. On his popular national radio show he persuaded New-Zealand band Crowded House to play a couple of songs. The response of the public was so great, that 2 Meter Sessions quickly became a household name. In 1993, the show made a successful transition to national television. From there the show became a national phenomenon, for over 10 years, with filmed sessions of new talent, breakthrough acts and arrived career artists. Almost a million of 2 Meter Sessions cd’s were sold in the Netherlands. • Subscribe to our Youtube-channel for more unique music sessions: • Playlist with over 150 well-known 2 Meter Sessions clips since 1993: • Listen to 2 Meter Sessions on Spotify: • • • === #GavinFriday
