Heading fast towards 25 years in the business (to be celebrated at Royal Albert Hall next Easter), the incomparable Show of Hands reunite for a bumper autumn-winter tour of England and Wales starting November 1.
The multi award-winning, Albert Hall quadruple sell-out duo (stand-out singer songwriter Steve Knightley and inspired instrumentalist Phil Beer) will be joined by their long-standing double bassist/vocalist Miranda Sykes for the 23-date Walk With Me tour (named after a track on their latest album).
Kicking off at Taunton’s Brewhouse Theatre in Somerset the tour finale will be no less than three nights back in their home county of Devon on December 8, 9 and 10 at Exmouth Pavilion – just yards from the folk club where they first started playing. They will also play a flagship gig at London’s Hackney Empire and venues including Cardiff’s St David’s Hall, The Sage Gateshead, The Alban Arena, Birmingham Town Hall and Truro’s Hall for Cornwall.
Opening for them will be 27 year-old singer songwriter Megan Henwood. Her boundary and niche-defying music has come to fruition in her acclaimed latest album Head Heart Hand and in her sublime new duo with fellow songstress Jackie Oates.
