Brighton Acoustic
Session
The Lord Nelson, Trafalgar Street BN1 4ED
Monday May 2
THE LONG HILL
RAMBLERS
We may be sticking our
necks out by calling this a supergroup but however you describe it, this line
up promises great things.
Ben Paley and Tab Hunter hardly need an introduction but they have now been
joined by banjo wizard Dan Stewart, also a member of Rattle on the Stovepipe.
All the focus, however, will be on Laura Hockenhull , the outstanding young
singer whose stunning vocal style has been described as “folk music’s best
kept secret.”
This will be their first public appearance as a quartet and is already
attracting a huge interest from far and wide.
There has already been an unprecedented number of requests for floor spots so
if you would like to sing or play arrival well before our 8.30 start is
advisable.
