Event information
Chris Wood is an uncompromising writer whose music reveals his love for the un-official history of the English speaking people. With gentle intelligence he weaves the tradition with his own contemporary parables.
A self-taught musician, composer and song writer, Chris is a lifelong autodidact whose independent streak shines through everything he does. Always direct and unafraid to speak his mind, his song writing has been praised for its surgical clarity. He cites his major influence as “Anon”.
On stage. Chris has the air of a craftsman who no longer needs to be precious about his art. Without any apparent effort he reaches deep into an enviable repertoire of songs before revealing another gem.

Please note that you will not be able to eat in the ballroom where the concert is held, although once the doors open and you have your hand stamped, you may reserve a seat in the ballroom (for example by leaving your coat on it) and then eat elsewhere. If you wish to eat, please ensure that you arrive in plenty of time to order and eat your food.
* Please do not save seats for other people unless they will be arriving before the start of the live music at 8pm. If there is a particular problem please let us know, otherwise we reserve the right to give these seats to people who are already there and who would otherwise have to stand.

* If you or a member of your party must have a seat due to disability, PLEASE EITHER ARRIVE WHEN THE DOOR OPENS AT 7PM, OR ELSE LET US KNOW IN ADVANCE GIVING THE REASON WHY A SEAT IS NEEDED. Sorry, but we cannot undertake to reserve seats for anybody other than the person with a disability.
* Please be aware that whilst our events are held in The Ivy House's beautiful Grade 2 listed ballroom, this is a pub, so there may be some background noise from adjoining bars, although we and the pub management have done our best to minimise this.
