| Post subject: | JOHN SMITH & SUPPORT - LIVE IN LANCASTER - THURS 15TH NO |
Thursday November 15th 2007 The Yorkshire House, 2 Parliament Street, Lancaster, LA1 1DB. Doors 8pm, Entry £5 Advance Tickets: http://www.wegottickets.com/location/LAWM LAWM presents one of the UKs most up and coming and innovative folk/blues guitarists and a glittering support. If you like any kind of acoustic music you should make this one - John Smith can do things with a guitar that you may not have seen before! JOHN SMITH (UK) "A singular talent" - The Times "He possesses a common name, but a rare talent" The Independent "John Smith and his band continually swoon audiences with their own strain of Nu-Folk. It is only a matter of time before he is enormous." - NME John Smith is a young guitarist and songwriter who is steadily rising up the ranks of the British Folk scene. His blend of folk storytelling and percussive, fingerstyle-based guitar creates a sound that has earned him a loyal following around the UK with music fans of the folk greats as well as those of nufolk. He has supported the likes of John Renbourn, John Martyn and Davy Graham, as well as becoming a firm favourite at The Green Man Festival in recent years. A great opportunity to catch him in a small venue while you can. http://www.myspace.com/johnacousticsmith JENNY MCCORMICK (MANCHESTER) Jenny McCormick is already establishing herself as one of the brightest talents of contemporary folk, but her delicate English rose voice and lightly strummed guitar have more than a few shades of the traditional... With her sound now filled out by a banjo player she's nothing short of sparkling. Definitely a name to look out for. http://www.myspace.com/jennymccormick DAN MELROSE (MANCHESTER) Dan Melrose is a singer-songwriter and guitar instrumentalist based in Manchester. He writes, records and performs original material that, if it had to be pigeonholed, would be called folk. Blending the romance of folk music with the grim realities of the blues… Melrose uses his guitar virtuosity to create a sound that balances the traditional with the modern. http://www.myspace.com/danmelrose MOLLIE BAXTER (LANCASTER) Mollie Baxter continues to establish herself on the local Lancaster music and literary scene. She packs a deceptive punch as well as a catchy tune. http://www.myspace.com/molliebaxter |
