CloseFolk/blues singer/songwriter Ben Clempson can silence a pub crowd with the quality of music he makes. His style is spellbinding. He combines intricate finger-picking with impressive percussive techniques on the body of the guitar. With his rich voice he expresses his musical storytelling from gentle folk through to raw, funky blues. If you like John Martyn, Richard Thompson, Nick Drake and Eric Bibb; you’ll love him!
Paul Van Ryan is a singer/songwriter with a bit of a twist, confessional, blunt and witty in his lyrics. True stories of the chaos that has followed him – love, death, hate, sex and bizarre twists all accompanied by catchy melodies. The Late Knights are his faithful backing band and can consist of up to 12 members including brass sections and pianists, but no matter what mix of musicians on the night, you’re guaranteed a fantastic gig.
