Thursday 18 September
Doors 7.30 for 8.15pm start
£11/£9 (Adv/OAP’s/students) Acoustic/ Americana
New songs of rural America and Old Time Mountain Music is where Dana & Sue are coming from. They are two guitar-playing, banjo-flailing, fiddle-sawing, and harmony-singing interpreters of the American experience. Their unique blend of contemporary songwriting and traditional Appalachian music bring to their performances a deep understanding of America’s musical heritage.

The genius of a Dana and Susan Robinson performance lies in their ability to capture the imagination of their audience, evoking a transformative experience that touches on the deepest humanity. They can make the audience howl with laughter or hush with poignant reflection as they take them on a journey across America and convey the mystery and wonder of the places they visit.

Many songwriters such as Bruce Springsteen or John Mellencamp have been heralded as modern day Woody Guthrie’s or keepers of the American rural spirit, but that mantle might be better entrusted to musicians like Dana Robinson who embody both the heart and the soul of folk music. Dirty Linen
