Only Child celebrate their tenth anniversary with a brand new album Straight Lines which they’re launching with a full band show at the Liverpool Philharmonic Hall Music Room on Friday 18th March 2022.
Liverpool Sound and Vision’s Ian D Hall gave the album 10/10 calling it "an album of class, sincerity, drama, and above all the one element required in today’s world, hope." You can read the full review here.
Support on the night is from local folk stalwart Alan Parry.
Only Child have headlined venues including the Music Room (twice), The Zanzibar Club, 81 Renshaw, The Magnet and Thornton Hough Village Club. Only Child have also supported the likes of Blue Rose Code, My Darling Clementine, Pete Wylie, Ian Prowse & Amsterdam, Steve Pilgrim, Gemma Hayes and Mick Flannery. They play solo acoustic, as a fiddle and acoustic guitar duo and as a full band with strings, horns and Irish whistle. This gig on 18th March will be a full band affair.
Tickets are £12 and £15 available from the Liverpool Philharmonic box office.
Doors open at 7pm and the show starts at 8pm.
