Phil Beer + Megson play Friday 11th Sept.

Phil Beer is the multi-instrumental half of the west countryโ€™s award-winning acoustic duo Show of Hands. With a professional career of over 36 years, Phil has a great deal of material to draw on for his solo appearances, which are an eclectic mix of traditional tunes, covers of Springsteen and The Hollies, together with his own compositions and songs from his contemporaries.

Megson Combining an infectious mix of heavenly vocals, lush harmonies and driving rhythmic guitars, Megson have gained a reputation not only for their arresting & intelligent song writing, but also for their exquisite musicianship and northern humour. Comprising Debs Hanna (vocals, whistle, piano, accordion) and Stu Hanna (guitar, mandola, banjo) Megson have been described as โ€œthe most original duo on the British folk sceneโ€ by The Guardian and as FROOTS Magazine puts it โ€œ๐˜ช๐˜ง ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฅ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏโ€™๐˜ต ๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ฌ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ถ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ค ๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฏ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ฉ๐˜ข๐˜ท๐˜ฆ ๐˜ข ๐˜ฑ๐˜ณ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฃ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ฎ.โ€
