CLIVE CARROLL plays the music of JOHN RENBOURN

+ special guest DARIUSH KANANI

(The Black Swan Folk Club are presenting 2 evenings of this event.)

For those who followed the folk revival of the 1960?s and the music of the cult band Pentangle, John Renbourn?s music needs little introduction. Spanning musical genres from blues and jazz through to folk, early music and original compositions he left behind a sumptuous catalogue of recordings which demonstrated not only his extraordinary talent as a guitar player but also his great musical depth. Any boundaries which may have existed previously were blurred by John?s eclectic taste, alongside a level of artistry and delicacy which led the way in the evolution of the steel-strung guitar.

Here is a rare, one-off opportunity to hear some of John?s greatest compositions performed live by one of the World?s finest guitarists who regularly shared the same stage. Clive Carroll was recently described by Total Guitar Magazine as ?...arguably the most accomplished fingerstylist in the world today?? and like John, he is equally at home playing Mississippi Blues as he is playing the Elizabethan lute music of John Dowland. On stage, Clive?s entertaining performance transfixes audiences whether they are guitar enthusiasts or not. Coupled with Dariush Kanani?s stunningly good technique inspired by his heroes John Renbourn and Bert Jansch, this one-time show is not to be missed!

This tour coincides with the release of Clive?s new album which features the music of John Renbourn.
