Information

A spectacular evening that sees two giants of the folk scene - Pentangle's John Renbourn and Incredible String Band's Robin Wiliamson - performing together.

Luminary acoustic guitarist and songwriter John Renbourn is best known for his collaborations with Bert Jansch and his time with the legendary folk/jazz fusion band Pentangle.

Scottish multi-instrumentalist, musician, singer, songwriter and master Celtic storyteller Robin Williamson made his name as a member of the Incredible String Band between 1966 and 1974.

During that time the band were one of the most popular and influential groups of the era. John and Robin will be performing both their own solo material at the concert as well as playing as a duo.

Their live album Wheel Of Fortune, released in 1995, was nominated for a Grammy (as was the Incredible String Band’s 1968 album Hangman’s Beautiful Daughter). An unmissable and intimate night in the company of two legends of the British folk scene.

This seated concert will begin at 7.30pm.
