News From Town Hall Live, Kirton In Lindsey, Lincolnshire, UK.

 

TOWN HALL LIVE FRIDAY 14TH FEBRUARY 2020 AMY SPEACE with support from ALI SPERRY 'Amy Speace's songs hang together like a short story collection, united from a common vantage point and common predicaments.  It is a gift to hear a heart so modest even when it is wide open,' Nashville based Amy Speace is a timeless, classic singer and songwriter.  She has one of the richest and loveliest voices and her songs are luxuriously smart.  Since her discovery in 2006 by folk pop icon Judy Collins, Amy has been heralded as one of the leading voices of the new generation of American singers.  From her beginnings in New York as a classically trained actress with the National Shakespeare Company, Amy started playing her own songs in Greenwich Village Coffee Houses, before moving to East Nashville in 2009. Since then she has released six critically acclaimed albums, the latest of which 'Me and the Ghost of Charlemagne' is just superb. Amy has played at Glastonbury, The Cambridge Folk Festival, and most recently The Long Road Festival.  She is also a gifted writer and has published essays in the New York Times,  The American Songwriter and other high profile magazines.   Now Amy embarks on her latest UK tour to showcase 'The Ghost of Charlemagne'.  Her THL concert is the last of five dates. Support comes from fellow Nashvillian Ali Sperry.  She is a gifted song writer with a sweet personality and even sweeter voice, with the ability to reach listeners with clever lyrics and melodies that resonate in a powerful manner.

We are delighted that Robbie Cavanagh is bringing his band to Kirton, as part of their first headlining UK Tour. Robbie performs self penned, un-scrubbed tales of heartbreak, love loss and discovery.  When he puts pen to paper he lives by his own words.  He writes with honesty, emotion, and most important instinctively.  He sings with clear, soothing vocals and a gentle manner. Over the years he has been championed by BBC Radio 2's Bob Harris, who has invited him to perform at Festival and Showcases across the UK and America. Support will come from the wonderful Demi Marriner.  Demi's passion and emotion is so contagious that it is impossible not to be captivated by her.  Riding shotgun alongside her unique and outstanding songwriting are her powerful vocals and emotive live performances, Tickets are priced at £13.50 they can be purchased from the Costcutter store in Kirton (soon to be Londis!), from Brian on 01652 649230 or brianchudley@btinternet.com or get them from www.wegottickets.com Venue:  Town Hall, Market Square, Kirton in Lindsey, N Lincs, DN21 4LZ The above two shows are followed by two blockbusters:   On Friday 20th March we welcome back JENN BOSTIC back to Kirton.
