Anthony John Clarke and Richard Digance ‘Countdown’ to Liverpool show in September

Anthony John Clarke and Richard Digance kick off Liverpool Acoustic’s new season at the Music Room on Saturday 14th September.

Richard Digance has graced every stage in his expansive career as a songwriter, performer, author and television personality. His TV career includes The Old Grey Whistle Test, numerous Saturday night ITV specials, and 17 years on Countdown. Richard has opened every Saturday at Fairport Convention’s Cropredy Festival for as long as anyone can remember (and that’s a long time!). His delivery from the stage is unparalleled and he is a very funny man. 

Anthony John Clarke has remained a stalwart of the music scene and festival world for over 30 years. He has written some of the best and well known songs for folk audiences and his shows are both extremely funny and entertaining. 

This is one of only a handful of 2024 shows featuring the pairing of Anthony John Clarke and Richard Digance. It’s an evening with a guaranteed feel-good factor showcasing two artists totally at ease with their material, their audience and one another.

AJ’s show last year with Fairport Convention’s Dave Pegg was a sell out, so this one, as they say, is not to be missed!

Tickets for this event include a £1 venue restoration levy, included in the ticket price. This fee supports building investment at the Grade II-listed Liverpool Philharmonic Hall.
