We are proud and delighted to announce Folk For Heroes - a benefit concert to help wounded soldiers and their families - on 24 April 2010 at Rowington Village Hall. http://www.rowington.org/Rowington/rowington_village_hall.html
Here's a taster:
The Bands:
The John Richards Band
Red Shoes
plus support: Shaky Nancy
John Richards needs little introduction in the folk world as the writer of Honour & Praise and The Deserter, both regularly performed by iconic folk-rockers Fairport Convention. The JRBs' latest album "For Love Nor Money" confirms John’s reputation as one of our finest writers and the band’s reputation as one of the most entertaining, emerging acts on the folk scene. http://www.thejrbs.co.uk/
Red Shoes' recently released album "Ring Around the Land", produced by Fairport Convention's Dave Pegg, has received much critical acclaim. It received 4 stars from Rock 'n' Reel who described it as a "Beautifully realised collection of well crafted songs rendered in attractive, melodic folk-rock style". http://www.myspace.com/redshoes1
