Extra London date added! Singer-songwriter Ryley Walker plays guitar like Bert Jansch and sings like Tim Buckley, yet has a musical style that's all his own. Still only in his mid-twenties, he's well on his way to becoming a major artist, as the rave reviews for his live performances and his most recent album, Primrose Green, attest.

For this very special concert, Ryley is joined onstage by near-legendary double-bassist Danny Thompson, who performed with both Bert Jansch (in Pentangle) and Tim Buckley, as well as with Nick Drake, John Martyn and many more - helping to create the lyrical and jazz-flecked astral folk that so influenced Walker close to half a century later. As well as performing works from his previous albums, the shows will likely include new Ryley Walker material. Expect a memorable night as these two immensely talented artists come together to create something exceptional. Advance booking strongly advised.

"Essential listening for the here and now" Sunday Times

Joining them will be the hotly ­tipped Liverpool 5­piece, ​The Hummingbirds. ​The sixties­ inspired band released their first EP 'Out Of The Rain' on 6th November to rave reviews from the likes of The Sunday Times, Gigslutz and Americana UK.
