When Bob sings a song about his beloved North East he imbues it with a magic that makes it his alone. Expect songs of love, joy, work and humour, sometimes all four in one song, all accompanied by a wonderful guitar style that can both drive or embellish a number. This man has served his time at his craft and it shows. Tickets are £11 from the club. Email or phone Paul Ryan, but hurry, they are going very quickly.
