Bob Fox

Event information

For half a century Bob Fox has been regarded as one of the 'iconic voices' of British folk song. Deeply influenced by the working class culture and industrial history of his native County Durham he has become a first rate exponent of storytelling through song. His masterful interpretation of traditional and contemporary song combined with an outstanding guitar technique has earned him countless nominations in the BBC Radio2 Folk Awards over the years.
Bob was invited to play the role of the folksinger/storyteller Songman in the English National Theatre's multi-award-winning production of War Horse in London's West End and on subsequent tours.


Expect to hear songs of love, joy, work and humour as he performs material from War Horse, newly written songs from the New Radio Ballad series and old favourites from his many recordings.

"Blessed with one of the best voices in British folk music today and coupled with astonishing guitar technique, Bob Fox performs pure and unadulterated folk music at its finest." - Australian National Folk Festival.
