May
7
Tue
Peter Knight’s Gigspanner (trio) @ St. Bartholomew’s Church Hall
May 7 @ 7:45 pm – 10:30 pm

The legend, that is Peter Knight, returns for his fifth concert in our church hall. In the wake of his departure from Steeleye Span, Peter has turned his full attention to Gigspanner, and in the process established their reputation as one of the most genuinely ground-breaking forces on the British Folk scene, inspiring Maverick magazine to write “Gigspanner are pushing at the boundaries, expanding the possibilities and in the process making some of the most beautiful music the genre has to offer”.

All profits to ongoing hall refurbishment project. Tickets available from John Owen – email – jowen6@yahoo.co.uk or mobile 07872-580450.
