Stroud singer-songwriter Johnny Coppin is set to perform at Lansdown Hall, Stroud, his first concert in the town this year.
Johnny teams up with Paul Burgess, on violin and recorder, and Geoff March on cello and vocals for the show on October 11th. There’ll be a mix of new and recent material; some of his popular Gloucestershire songs with words by local poets Laurie Lee and Frank Mansell; together with some classics from Decameron albums.
Johnny’s gorgeous and seemingly effortless vocals have graced the UK acoustic scene since the emergence of Decameron in the 1970s. An experienced performer, accompanying himself on piano and guitar, he is a talented songwriter and a fine interpretative singer.
Johnny has recorded over fourteen albums including The Winding Stair, Borderland, Edge of Day with writer Laurie Lee, The Gloucestershire Collection, five Christmas albums, and his latest release River of Dreams. He also presented the Acoustic Music Show on BBC Radio Gloucestershire for over twenty years.
Saturday, October 11th, Lansdown Hall, Stroud, 7.30pm (doors 7pm).
