Absolutely stoked that Broadcasting Legend Mark Radcliffe has chosen to visit us with partner in crime David Boardman for what looks set to be a very entertaining night. Not to be missed. this is a seated gig so limited tickets. Forewarned is forearmed!
Mark, once half of legendary radio double-act Mark and Lard, has been on the national airwaves since the early nineties and currently hosts the Radio 2 Folk Show and weekend breakfast on 6Music with Stuart Maconie. He was the leader of folk-rock bands The Family Mahone and Galleon Blast and has also written five bestselling books about music. His next publication is ‘Et tu, cavapoo’ one man and his dog in Rome which he has co-authored with his canine companion Arlo.

His live shows, which have taken him across the UK and into Spain and Portugal, feature rambling anecdotes from his mystifyingly long career, along with some thought-provoking, borderline depressing original songs and the odd carefully selected cover.

Offering sterling musical assistance and much-needed moral support is Mark’s musical collaborator David Boardman, a consummate guitarist, singer and fine artist.
Their debut album ‘First Light’ is now followed by their sophomore offering ‘Hearsay and Heresy’ which is released by Talking Elephant records and has attracted extensive national and local radio airplay.
