There are more shows to be announced that are just waiting for confirmation It's shaping up to be a busy year! All the details will be posted up on the Gigs page and the various venue websites in the coming weeks, including most importantly, how to get tickets!
If you follow this link to YouTube you will find an end of the night unplugged performance from Steve of a yet to be released song called 'Rollercoaster'. We think it captures that intimate coffee house atmosphere reminiscent of the early sixties Greenwich Village folk scene in New York. Take a look, give it a like and share it with friends.
Steve and his Festival Band played a crackin' one hour set on Bank Holiday Monday at Twinwood Heritage Festival in Bedfordshire. It's been a long time since Steve has had the chance to play with the band and hopefully we won't have to wait as long for the next opportunity. There should also be some 'live' footage from the gig online pretty soon, we'll keep you posted on that. Plans are afoot for more festival appearances in 2025 ... watch this space!
It's just over a week before Steve takes his Festival Band to The Twinwood Heritage Festival in Bedfordshire for a performance on the Moonshine Glade Stage at 1pm on Bank Holiday Monday. The band consists of Neil Harland on bass, Lloyd Wright on guitar and Oz on drums. It will be an hour long show featuring songs from Steve's recent 'Muscle Memory' album plus one or two other favourites. You find more information including ticket details on the Gigs Page on this website.
We are very pleased to announce an extra special gig in the calendar. Steve will be returning to Dry Water Arts Centre in Amble, Northumberland on Friday December 13th with special guest, the talented percussionist and all round good human being, Brendan Murphy. It will be an evening of calm, comfort and belonging and as the Scots would say a chance to 'Coorie Up'. There are some basic details on the Gigs Page but information on how to purchase tickets will be made available in the next few weeks. We advise you book early as this is likely to sell out.
