Paul Straws, Gary Stewart

Mellowtone and Liverpool Acoustic are teaming up to present a series of evenings with Liverpool-based songwriters, in the intimate surrounds of the Lantern Theatre Liverpool, nestled in the Baltic Triangle.

The first guest will be Paul Straws - playing the best from a back catalogue of a decade's worth of material. Lauded for his 'greatsongwriting' by BBC 6 Music's Tom Robinson, and oft championed by Dave Monks (BBC Introducing) Paul is a well-known figure in Liverpool's acoustic fraternity.

"After delighting with light, well-crafted mandolin and ukulele led folk pop, the local songsmith plays two filthy numbers straight from the oeuvre of Prince." (Bido Lito - live review)

Support on the night is Gary Stewart, a Scottish singer/songwriter with tales of paranoia, love and prostitution, delivered with Celtic flair. And a Mellowtone event wouldn't be complete without Beaten Tracks DJs!
