Highly acclaimed singer-songwriters Rob Halligan and Gareth Davies-Jones visit Worthing as part of their autumn tour on 9 October.
The folk roots specialists will be playing The Projectionist's Bar upstairs at The Dome Cinema, Worthing showcasing their new album ... Try This At Home, and with the tour in support of fairtrade campaigning organisation Traidcraft tickets are expected to sell quickly.
Multi-instrumentalist Rob has played many of the UK's festivals this year, and combines passionate delivery with "a gentle unforced spirituality" according to one reviewer. One time Worthingite Rob's last album Dancing With Seagulls received play on BBC Radio 2 and a host of local stations.
Gareth Davies-Jones is from Northern Ireland, but based in Northumberland, and has been described by Propoganda magazine as "one of the UK's best kept musical secrets". His latest album Water & Light has been widely praised, with content rich in people, places, politics and social justice.
The pair combine superbly and promise a great evening of songs, stories and inspiration.
The night is the first of two events presented by St Matthew's Church at the Dome Cinema, with a comedy night set for 14 November with stand-up and TV comedy actor Jo Enright.
Tickets for both shows, which kick off at 8pm, are �6 each (�4 concessions) from St Matthew's Church (01903 207024) or 077200 40456. |
