Hank Wangford & Reg Meuross
If Daniel O'Donnell is the
brightly scrubbed face of country music then Hank Wangford is its guilty
conscience, its dark and troubled grubby soul! Appearing with the ultimate
sideman; incredible singer, guitar & banjo player Reg Meuross |

Saturday September 15, 2007 - Lisa
Knapp Without question the next big success to follow Kate Rusby & Karine Polwart from the roots/acoustic scene into mainstream awareness. Lisa's treatment of traditional & original material is creative & mature and her voice is extraordinarily arresting (imagine Bjork, Kate Rusby & Dolores O'Riordan from The Cranberries fused together!) + extraordinary songwriter Bob Rafkin & sardonic bluesman Tom Parkes BOOK EARLY ! Tickets - £10 |
