Bandleader, Danni Gibbins, at just 21, has drawn praise from such great songwriters as Ralph McTell and Richard Thomson for her work and is being tipped to become a major songwriter. Her guitar work is brilliant, a percussive and complex style reminiscent of Davy Graham or Bert Jansch, driving and exciting in its’ intensity. Her voice is a warm, expressive presence, drawing her audience into her private world of acoustic intimacy.

Don't miss this entertaining and original one man show, which is sure
to include a handful of classic covers too.
Determined to make something of his music career, five years ago Derrin Nauendorf arrived atHeathrow airport from Australia with a guitar, £1200 and several extra layers of clothing to acclimatise to the drop in temperature. From this, Derrin spent those next five years playing anywhere that would have him, sleeping on floors and living on tuna baguettes. Things looked up a few years ago when he purchased an old Post Office van, which then became his home for the next six months, more importantly, it allowed him to get gigs, and essentially his music, out into the real depths of the UK. They've looked up and haven't looked back yet.
