Event information
Steve Tilston is one of our most celebrated song smiths, widely recognised within the world of folk and contemporary music; the words, arrangements and subtle, quite superb guitar playing could be no one else.
The story of Steve’s “lost” letter from John Lennon thrust Steve into the worldwide media spotlight and was the inspiration for a Hollywood movie.,Danny Collins, starring Al Pacino.
The writer of such classic songs as The Slipjigs and Reels and the award-winning The Reckoning, many others have recorded Steve’s songs with Here’s to Tom Paine becoming the adopted theme song for the Tom Paine Society of America .
He’s toured with John Renbourn’s Ship of Fools, traditional singer Maggie Boyle (the classic recordings Of Moor and Mesa and All Under the Sun), as guitarist with Ballet Rambert, with Maartin Allcock & Pete Zorn in WAZ! with Brooks Williams and with his daughter Martha. Plus collaborations with alt-country band The Durbervilles and old Bristol pals Keith Warmington and the late Stuart Gordon as the Steve Tilston Trio.
“The more you listen, the more there is to discover.” Bob Harris
