Mark Harrison Band
Tickets: £18.00 from St. Mary's Arts Centre or On-Line £19.99 (includes the booking fee) - To BOOK ON LINE - Please Click here
There is no one in music quite like Mark Harrison. With his band, or in solo or duo form, he is widely considered one of the most original and interesting artists currently operating in the UK.
His highly individual, all-original music goes down very well with audiences of all kinds, and it has taken him and the band to some of the top venues and festivals in the UK, attracting acclaim wherever he goes.
Recent appearances on BBC Radio 2, as guest on Cerys Matthews’s show and on Anneka Rice’s Pick Of The Week show, have further added to his growing reputation.

Bonny & Read
Bonny & Read is a new musical play by Claire Novello, with music composed by Frederick Appleby, and directed by award-winning director Kenneth Michaels
Our voyage isn't for the faint-hearted
Based on the trials of Captain Rackham and his pirate crew in Jamaica in 1720, history meets myth in this story of the remarkable, cross-dressing women pirates Anne Bonny and Mary Read, and their fateful encounter with the infamous Jack Rackham, also known as Calico Jack.
Bonny & Read depicts the circumstances that led these two women to disguise themselves as men, go out to sea, and join the notoriously male-dominated world of piracy. This epic voyage of twists and turns is a story of exceptional female bravery, adventure, and survival against all odds.
Bonny & Read is a new musical play by Claire Novello, with music composed by Frederick Appleby, and directed by award-winning director Kenneth Michaels.
4 **** review Brighton Fringe,
“If you love pirates, musical theatre, female empowerment and standing up for something you believe in, Bonny and Read had all these, as well as excitement, adventure and more.”

Smugglers Festival Presents
Double Headliner: Hannah Moule & The Moulettes (String Ensemble) + The John Martyn Project
The prolific and reconfigured Moulettes have written 55 pieces of music, releasing five EPs over the last two years. Each EP is born of uniquely formed bands, telling a story of connection and communication in five forms; Strings, Horns, A Cappella, Electronica & Electric. The ensembles feature some of our favourite, insanely talented musicians, including the likes of Nick Cave, Bonobo, Anchorsong, Alabaster dePlume, Floating points, Seasick Steve, The Levellers, Unthanks, Falle Nioke, Rioghnach Connolly, and Ayanna Witter-Johnson.
The Strings Ensemble are pushing what can be done with a traditional chamber ensemble, moving between classical & steel string Guitars, Cellos, Viola, Piano, Violin, Harp, Nyckelharpa (Swedish keyed fiddle) Percussion & close trademark use of harmony vocals.
Now Hannah is bringing her Strings Ensemble to tour the UK, including their fifth performance at Glastonbury, they continue to be equally at home in a warehouse, concert hall, brewery, church or the backroom of a discworld tavern. This particular Smugglers show is set to be one-of-a-kind with a double headline act with The John Martyn Project.

Folk in the Barn presents
‘Follow me Down’ Songs from the West with Steve Knightley
Steve is a multi-award-winning singer-songwriter/musician and founder member of folk/acoustic roots trail-blazers ‘Show of Hands’ described by Peter Gabriel as ‘one of the great English bands’.
A constant throughout Steve’s work is his ability to root his songs in time and place, notably the West Country where he was raised. Informed by a love of narrative and English traditional folk music, Knightley writes historically accurate songs that resonate with contemporary meaning.
He has an extraordinary ability to bring the past vividly, smack bang into the present. It’s a gift that fuels his reputation as an ‘issues’ writer.
The seminal ‘Country Life’ earned him the title ‘the gravel voiced spokesman of the rural poor’ and his anti-banking rant ‘Arrogance, Ignorance and Greed’ picked up the gong for ‘Best Song’ at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
Steve has a degree in History and Politics and in 2015 he was presented with an Honorary Doctorate from Plymouth University for his services to geography and music.
Steve is also Patron of the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter and last year he was awarded the title of Honorary Rifleman by the 6th Battalion the Rifles Regiment.
