SUMMARY:Reg Meuross: Song Cycles @ Music Room 27/04/19
DESCRIPTION:Singer\, songwriter and storyteller Reg Meuross uses words and music to paint pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung. \nDescribed as ‘a brilliant singer-songwriter with a social conscience’ by Mark Radcliffe on BBC Radio 2 Folk Show\, Reg’s catalogue brings characters from history to life\, songs of protest and some of the most heart aching love songs ever written\, performed with depth and spellbinding delivery. \nIn this stunning solo show\, the master storyteller in song presents two powerful song cycles\, each centred around a prominent political activist. \nThe first song cycle is centred around Woody Guthrie’s song ‘Deportees’\, which called for the 28 Mexicans who were killed in the tragic Los Gatos air crash of 1948 to be remembered as individuals\, not as ‘28 Deportees’. \nThe second song cycle\, entitled ‘12 Silk Handkerchiefs’\, celebrates the strength and selfless perseverance of Big Lil’ Bilocca and her fight for greater safety on Hull’s fishing trawlers after the triple disaster of 1968. These are songs that capture the spirit of protest and are also full of compassion and insight into the human condition. \nPowerful and moving songwriting \nThe Telegraph\n\n…echoes of early Dylan\, Tom Paxton and Leonard Cohen \nThe Guardian\n\n£14\, £17 (Premium)

DESCRIPTION:Meet the highwaymen\, robbers\, and brigands of England in this energetic and entertaining new show from Pilgrims’ Way. \nFormed in a Stockport pub in early 2010\, Pilgrims’ Way has grown to incorporate a dazzling array of instrumentation and millinery.

Prime the mild pump\, waterproof the revolving mirror ball\, and strap on your dancing trousers! \nTickets are £14 (£17 Premium) available from the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall box office in person\, by phone 0151 709 3789 and online at liverpoolphil.com

SUMMARY:University of Liverpool Lunchtime Concert Series: Hughie Jones @ Victoria Gallery and Museum 27/02/19
DESCRIPTION:Hughie Jones plays guitar\, banjo\, and ukulele and was taught harmonica by the legendary blues man Sonny Terry.

His latest CD ‘Maritime Miscellany’ contains songs from many aspects of seafaring and features friends from his long association with Fellside Recordings. \nFree entry – registration required

SUMMARY:Merry Hell\, plus Fine Lines @ Music Room 23/02/19
DESCRIPTION:Merry Hell – After two consecutive years of sold out shows Liverpool Acoustic’s favourite folk-rock band are returning to the Music Room on Saturday 23rd February for another hell-raising show. \nMerry Hell have made a name for themselves in recent years as one of the most energetic and entertaining bands on the UK folk festival circuit\, and with three critically acclaimed albums under their belts (and a new one on the way) a visit to Liverpool is long overdue. \nMerry Hell is a band founded on the ever-evolving Folk tradition – music made by the people and shared by the people. Though their hearts and souls are tuned to the songs which came before\, Merry Hell bring us new words and music forged from their own experiences\, from the lows and the loves of their lives. \nEmerging from the ashes of festival favourites\, punk folk band Tansads\, Merry Hell retains a nucleus of brothers John\, Bob and Andrew Kettle (guitar\, mandolin and vocals respectively)\, along with keyboard player\, Lee Goulding and drummer Andy Jones\, the addition of keys and vocalist\, Virginia Kettle has helped create a new identity\, purpose and spirit\, in their music. She took little persuading to trade in her solo singer-songwriter past for a future in the band. Her prolific\, ingenious and insightful song writing is one of the focal points of Merry Hell’s recordings and live performances – her presence has perfectly complemented a group which has taken particular pride in penning originals. \nMerry Hell have a growing fan base\, great reviews for live shows\, and their albums ‘Blink … and You’ll Miss It’\, ‘Head Full of Magic\, Shoes Full of Rain’\, plus current offering ‘The Ghost In Our House and other Stories’ received rave reviews in the music press\, with all three getting five star reviews. \nSupport is from Knutsford-based folk and alt-country band Fine Lines. \nTickets are £14 (£12 concessions) from liverpoolphil.com \nPLEASE NOTE – This is a standing gig. Limited seating is available in the bar area from 7pm on a first come\, first served basis. \n‘More than just a bit stupendous’ fRoots Magazine \n‘Guaranteed to get you on your feet dancing’ Liverpool Acoustic
