 Callaghan Headlines Town Hall Live in Kirton In Lindsey on Friday 6th December, 2024

The concert will be Callaghan's sixth appearance at Town Hall Live, the five previous concerts

Callaghan's extraordinary voice sets her music apart is nothing short of stunning.
  Originally from Grantham, she moved to America in 2010 to record her debut album with Shawn Mullins.  Ten years of performing saw her win fans from all over America.  As with many artists things changed in early 2020 when she was all set to tour across the UK and America but only got to do one show before Covid closed down live music.  She moved back home and started a family.  She now has two children and has relocated to Cirencester.  
Since 2010 years he has released six full length and one live album. The last three being her 'Acoustic Coffee House' albums.  She is due to release a new studio album in early 2025 and this will be a ideal opportunity for her to showcase songs from it.
Live, Callaghan performs on piano and guitar and gives a stunning vocal performance, drawing comparisons with Sara McLachlan, Eva Cassidy and Carly Simon.  Her songs range from joyous anthems like 'Best Year' and 'Crazy Beautiful Life' and to emotive ballads like 'When You Loved Me' and 'Broken'.  For her latest appearance in Kirton, she will be accompanied by Ant Clark on keyboards and backing vocals.
Tickets for this concert are priced at £16.  They are selling well.  Get yours now to avoid disappointment.  Email Brian at brianchudley@btinternet.com or ring him on 01652 649230.  You can also pop in to Morrisons Daily (Kirton) or buy them on line  from www.wegottickets.com

£7 million in new premises taxes places over 350 grassroots music venues at immediate risk of closure.

£7 million in new premises taxes places over 350 grassroots music venues at immediate risk of closure.

Despite extensive briefing to HM Treasury, Department of Culture, Media and Sport
and Department for Business and Trade about the negative economic, social and cultural impacts of the removal of the 75% business rate relief for Grassroots Music Venues, the Government has today announced that business rate relief will reduce to 40% from April 1st, 2025. The immediate impact is to create a demand for £7 million in additional premises taxes from a sector that, in 2023, returned an entire gross profit across all 830 such venues in the UK of just £2.9 million. 43% of Grassroots Music Venues in the UK made a loss in 2023.
