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. Tickets are priced at £13, 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  on SATURDAY 7TH MARCH, 2020  it's THE ROBBIE CAVANAGH BAND with support from Dem Marriner. 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. Jenn is best known for her song 'Jealous of the Angels' and was championed by Terry Wogan and has appeared on BBC Breakfast and Songs of Praise.  She was named International Touring Artist of the Year in both 2017 & 2018 by the BCMA.  Support will come from Welsh singer Laura Evans.  Tickets are selling fast for this concert, get yours now And then on Friday 3rd April we welcome THE PAPERBOYS back to Kirton.   The band from Vancouver have been lighting up stages across the world for over 25 years with their freewheeling blend of influences from Celtic to bluegrass and Mexican music to Canadian roots and more, to produce a melting pot of sounds.  They are just brilliant.  Support will come from THL favourite Dan Webster. For tickets ring Brian on 01652 649230 or email him at brianchudley@btinternet.com or get them from www.wegottickets.com   For more information on these and other concerts visit www.townhalllive.co.uk

Lynne Hanson and the Good Intentions Saturday 17th November at Kirton In Lindsey Town Hall

TOWN HALL LIVE   presents LYNNE HANSON & THE GOOD INTENTIONS on  SATURDAY 17TH NOVEMBER  with support from AMY ANDREWS Lynne Hanson started playing guitar as a teenager, eventually working her way to an award winning debut album in 2006.  Tow more albums quickly followed and each garnered critical approval.  Lynne then took time out, before returning in 2014 with the excellent 'River of Sand', which saw her writing mature into a more intuitive and visceral style.  'Uneven Ground' followed in 2017 and explores giving sound advice through song writing and fighting back against the devil within us. At first listen, Lynne Hanson's warm, but gritty music leads you to think of America's South, but Lynne is in fact from Ottawa, Canada. Her sound is born honestly, through a lifetime of experiences and influences expressed through rock, blues and roots music that bleeds from her very being.  Her songs are familiar and comfortable, fearless and strong.  Her bluesy croon is pure and full of passion. At the start of 2018, Lynne teamed up with Lynn Miles to release an album and tour under the name of The LyNNeS.  Both were a great success. Now she is back with her band, The Good Intentions which again features MJ Dandneau on bass, plus new members Kevin Corbett on lead guitar and Cody Iwasiuk on drums. Lynne's previous performances at Town Hall Live have been a joy and we are sure that this concert will be no different. Supporting, as a special guest will be AMY ANDREWS from Atlanta, Georgia.  Amy has a powerful voice that can change from soaring to reserved and is reminiscent of Eva Cassidy.  There is an intimacy in Amy's live performances that make the listener feel she is singing to them personally.  Her voice is strong, seductively smooth and full of emotion.  Earlier this year she released her debut album 'The Best' Advance Tickets are £13.00 and can be obtained from the One Stop store in Kirton, from Brian on 01652 649230 or brianchudley@btinternet.com or from www.wegottickets.com Venue:  Town Hall, Market Square, Kirton in Lindsey, N Lincs, DN21 4LZ and then for our last concert of the year we welcome DANNI NICHOLLS to TOWN HALL LIVE. She will be accompanied by Tom Dibb and Mark Lewis with support from ROBBIE CAVANAGH. This concert is on Friday 7th December Danni Nicholls effortlessly slips from smoky soul, folk-pop and heart wrenching alternative country, all in her trademark rich, velvety voice. Danni's start continues to rise, with two consecutive Americana Music Association Award nominations for Album of The Year in 2017 and Artist of the Year in 2018.  She also performed at this year's Folk Alliance International in Kansas.  In May this year she embarked on her next musical journey, making a new studio in Nashville with renowned producer Jordan Brooke Hamlin.  It will be released in early 2019. Danni will be accompanied by two members of the Lauren Housley Band, Tom Dibb on lead guitar and Mark Lewis on bass. Support will come from Liverpool artist ROBBIE CAVANAGH.  Robbie's beautiful lyrics and flawless soulful vocals, along with his incredible live performances never fail to turn heads. Back to Danni Nicholls, the word that reoccurs in any review for her is elegance.  Bob Harris of Radio 2 hails her and says 'I absolutely love the beauty and elegance of her music and voice'   Advance Tickets are on sale NOW and are priced at £13.50. They can be purchased from the OneStop store in town, Brian on 01652 649230 or www.wegottickets.com and on to 2019: The year starts with a bang.  First up on Saturday 19th January is an evening with Damian Wilson and Adam Wakeman - last year's concert was a sell out and there are just a handful of tickets left for this year's concert - don't miss out RESERVE YOURS NOW!! And then on Friday 1st February we welcome back Canadian band THE ONCE and five year absence.  They are brilliant.  Don't miss them. We then have lots more to come with Thunder & Rain performing on Friday 15th March, Good Lovelies playing on Saturday 6th April, and the fantastic May Erlewine headlining on Friday 26th April   For more information on these concerts visit www.townhalllive.co.uk Bring Your Friends for a Great Night Out and Save on Tickets!
