Charlie Dore

A night of eclectic, contemporary folk as multi-award winner Charlie Dore, one of the UK’s most respected songwriters teams up with multi-instrumentalist Julian Littman of Steeleye Span to share her new album, Dark Matter. It promises to be a fast moving show as the two musicians swap guitars, mandolin, harmonium, ukulele, piano and autoharp.

As well as introducing some new and different flavours to shine a very personal light on her mysterious subject matter, Charlie and Julian will dip into favourites from the past 6 albums and share original acoustic versions of hits Charlie has written for others, including George Harrison and Jimmy Nail. And there’s always a possibility of a new angle on her own song, Pilot of the Airwaves - still a national radio favourite.

Funds raised from these concerts go towards building improvements at this important community hall. Top of the list are new washroom facilities and an updated kitchen. Also on the wish list is a separate bar area and larger meeting/performance hall.
