Life's too short for working who knows where, but Digance is still gigging
Folk singer, songwriter and raconteur Richard Digance visits Worthing’s Pavilion Theatre for an evening of songs, rhymes and rambling stories on Saturday September 04.
Richard’s career has been lengthy and diverse, from a BAFTA Nomination as a TV entertainer to supporting Steve Martin and Robin Williams. Richard is part of The Virgin Anthology of Songwriters for his contribution to British comedy songwriting and for over half a century he has travelled the world with just a guitar and his immense collection of stories.
He appeals to all age groups by singing his own songs, telling fun stories, popular poems and legendary audience participation sing-songs. He has survived all trends and during his career he has played guitar with Queen's Brian May, The Moody Blues, Status Quo, Chris de Burgh and Elkie Brooks among others.
In recent years he has built a further following through his regular appearances on Channel 4’s Countdown where he is the fifth most regular guest in the history of the show and still appears in dictionary corner. He performs at Fairport Convention’s Cropredy Festival each year and will have recently returned from the 2010 dates when he visits Worthing.
From Duelling Banjos and Angie to Ain't She Sweet, Jitterbug Rag and his ever-popular I Still Remember there will be plenty to make everyone laugh, listen and sing along.
