Photos of the guests and singers for 62st Season.
Roy brings his skill as a fine concertina player and singer. He can move effortlessly from a traditional ballad to shanty to music hall ditty. His program is peppered with songs from his beloved Cheshire and his self-penned songs sit comfortably alongside the genre and are being picked up and sung by lots of other artists. A night not to be missed.
First guest night of 2014 starts with Nightwatch bringing their “Musical History Tour” show. It consists of Andy Casserley and Ian Pittaway playing a plethora of period instruments and singing songs from the 12th to the 17th Century. Why was a well known Christmas song never sung at Christmas? Why was farting so enjoyable in the 17th century? These and other Highbrow and lowbrow questions will be answered on the night.
Richard Grainger is a prolific song writer with umpteen albums to his credit. He has written about the heroes but also championed the life and trades of the working class people of the North. Richard does not forget the traditional numbers and is also a fine shanty singer so there will be lots of opportunity to sing along.
