50 YEARS ON - A 50th ANNIVERSARY ACOUSTIC CONCERT

The Strawbs started life as the Strawberry Hill Boys before emerging into the mainstream from the exciting British Folk Movement of the mid 60s alongside other such luminaries as Fairport Convention, Pentangle, Al Stewart and Roy Harper. Their first album with Sandy Denny attracted the attention of A&M Records in America and they became the first British Band to be signed by the famous label. Under the guidance of Herb Alpert & Gerry Moss, major chart success followed with seven consecutive albums in the Billboard charts, including classics 'Bursting at the Seams', 'Grave New World', 'Hero & Heroine', 'Dragonfly' and 'Ghosts', earning the band two Gold Albums along the way.
The Acoustic Strawbs of the 21st century consist of the founder, constant guiding force, originator and lead vocalist Dave Cousins, described by Rolling Stone Magazine as the best Dylan influenced songwriter to come out of the UK. Alongside him longtime band members lead guitarist Dave Lambert and the astonishingly versatile Chas Cronk, who together formed the front line of the classic 1970s Strawbs.

THIS IS AN ALL SEATED SHOW ON A VERY SPECIAL ANNIVERSARY TOUR.
