Anthony John Clarke and Dave Pegg. Support from Chris Butler. £10. Doors at 8.00pm. October 31st.

18/10/2015

 
Picture
Described by the Fairport Convention as a national treasure, Anthony John Clarke is one of those rare songwriters who can move comfortably from pathos to humour within a song and his extensive repertoire moves from the troubles in his native Northern Ireland to homelessness and certain pub entertainments. A strong believer in the duty of the artist to entertain as well as move and inform, Anthony is an accomplished performer as at ease in the intimacy of a small venue as he is on the big stage compering the Cropredy festival.
His accomplice on the mirth and mischief tour surely needs no introduction. The longest serving Fairport , Dave Pegg continues to astonish audiences as his fingers magically expand to deliver his trademark bass parts before contracting to deliver virtuoso mandolin. One of the most accomplished musicians on the scene, Peggy has toured extensively with Jethro Tull while remaining one of the rocks on which the Fairport legend is founded.
Best to arrive early for this one so as not to miss Chris Butler, local lad gone irretrievably bad.
Tickets are available at the venue or contact mjones572@hotmail.co.uk as demand is already high for this one and for the return of Steve Ignorant and Andy T on Friday Nov 13th.
