Carperby Concerts proudly presents Steve Tilston
November 16 @ 19:00 – 23:00
Steve Tilston, a long-time YAA supporter and one of the UK’s most celebrated songsmiths and guitar virtuoso, widely recognised within the world of folk and contemporary music, is performing at Carperby Village Institute in North Yorkshire this November.
Steve made his recording debut in 1971 with the classic ” An Acoustic Confusion” and has been turning out quality albums ever since. His 2011 album, ” The Reckoning” gained four-star reviews in the Guardian, the Observer and the Scotsman, a guest appearance on Later with Jools Holland and the BBC Four Songwriters’ Circle series, plus a BBC Folk Award win for ‘Best Original Song’. His songs have been widely covered by other artists including, amongst others, Fairport Convention, Ralph McTell, Bob Fox, John Kirkpatrick & Robin Williamson.
The story of Steve’s “lost” letter from John Lennon thrust him into the worldwide media spotlight and was the inspiration for the Hollywood movie “Danny Collins”, starring Al Pacino.
Steve will be featuring material from his latest album, “Last Call”, as well as songs from his extensive back catalogue.
Tickets are £15 in advance and £17 on the door. All proceeds from the event will be kindly donated to Yorkshire Air Ambulance.
Doors open at 7 pm and the concert starts at 8 pm
The venue has a licensed bar.
This is an evening not to be missed!
