Event Type

Genre : Music - Folk/blues/world

Description

Robb Johnson is now widely recognised as one of the finest songwriters working in the UK today. ?An English original? ~ Robin Denselow, the Guardian. ?One of our best singer-songwriters ever? ~ Mike Harding. His songs feature in the repertoires of a wide variety of musicians, from folk legend Roy Bailey to cabaret chanteuse Barb Jungr, and he enjoys a similarly diverse spectrum of critical acclaim ? ?A modern-day Dostoyevsky? said the US?s Dirty Linen. Mojo made the double CD, Gentle Men, a song suite family history of the First World War and its consequences, Album Of The Month, while The Daily Telegraph made it their Folk Album Of The Year.

He has played pubs, clubs, pavements, pickets and benefits, arts centres and festivals, local radio, BBC Radio 3 and 4, and even the Albert Hall in London. He also plays extensively in Belgium, Holland, Germany and the USA. His electric band The Irregulars gigs on an irregular basis, and generally features long-time friend and Irregular Records recording artiste John Forrester on bass and Robb?s Son Arvin Johnson on drums.

Robb Johnson is one of the most consistent and prolific songwriters of our generation. He weaves compelling tales, with humour that raises a wry smile, and creates songs that are powerful and thought provoking. He is a national treasure, both for his aspirational aims and his deft lightness of touch.
