Music with a Message at St Mary's

As St Mary's broadens its ambition to be a champion of creativity and enjoyment, we are hosting a number of evenings of acoustic music, performed by talented singer-songwriters whose take on life has the ability to make people laugh, cry, rage and wonder.

We are delighted to announce an evening with will be the highly talented and award-winning Reg Meuross who has played venues from the smallest village halls in the land to the Albert Hall. Reg's lyrics carry poignant messages of the fight against injustice as well as very moving tales of love and courage.

Reg is now touring with new album 12 Silk Handkerchiefs and characters from 12 other superb albums.

Described by Mark Radcliffe as a “brilliant singer-songwriter and true troubadour with a social conscience,” it’s not all protest; as well as story songs which bring characters from history to life and comment on life around him Reg also writes and sings some of the most heart-aching love songs ever written, performed with depth and spellbinding delivery. “There’s something special about the way he writes and delivers a song” said Townes Van Zandt. Reg has that rare gift of being able to touch people through his songs and performance, on a really human level, his words and music painting pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung, accompanying himself masterfully on guitar and captivating audiences with his beautiful tenor voice.
