Peter Knight's Gigspanner

Event information

Presented by Harberton Cricket Club. Doors/Real Ale Bar open 7.15pm. Concert starts 8.00pm.
No lesser person than Chris Leslie of Fairport Convention describes Gigspanner as "brilliant, moving and inspiring". Heady praise indeed, and typical of the comments that are circulating about Gigspanner, a trio formed by none other than Steeleye Span's legendary fiddle player, Peter Knight. However, audiences are advised to leave their preconceptions at the door, because Gigspanner present a programme of music that defies generalisation.
Peter is joined by Roger Flack (guitar) and Vincent Salzfaas (congas/djembe) and the trio recently celebrated having their debut CD 'Lipreading the Poet' named as one of the Top 15 Global CDs of 2009 by 'The Wire', a distinction that is indicative of the outstanding musicianship and commitment to originality that is the hallmark of their performances.
