About this Event
SATURDAY 23rd NOVEMBER • DAVID CELIA & CO + support @ The King Arthur, Glastonbury • £7 ADV. (More on the door!)
Introducing David Celia from the outskirts of Toronto, Canada. David is an innovative
singer/songwriter and astonishing guitar player, known for his spontaneously driven live
performances. He tours frequently across Canada and Europe (Glastonbury Festival) and
is quoted as "One of Toronto's best guitar players” by CBC Radio. David's music has
consistently appeared on the CBC, BBC and WNYC in New York. Even the legendary
Gordon Lightfoot is a fan.
David has performed live on BBC2’s highly regarded Bob Harris national radio show
several times.
- “This Is Superb. A Gem” -Bob Harris. BBC Radio 2.
- “I like the sentiment in your lyrics” - Gordon Lightfoot
David's reputation as a guitarist has led him to play with many local Canadian artists in
their bands, including legendary Alt-Country/folk singers Ian & Sylvia Tyson and acts
diverse as Icelandic alt/pop star Emiliana Torrini. He's supported shows for Elvis Costello,
Badly Drawn Boy, Shawn Colvin, Fairport Convention, Ron Sexsmith, Martha
Wainwright + more. He’s also had the pleasure of meeting and playing music with the
late great Pete Seeger.
In April 2024, he released a new single “Wake Up Again” and went on to tour in Europe/
UK, including Glastonbury once again. He’s currently in the process of recording the next
album at a studio in Wales.
He and drummer Clifford Rutherford will be joined by David’s longtime friend and early
bandmate, Davey Headon on Bass. Together, they sing catchy songs with 3-part
Beatlesque/CSNY style harmonies plus open musical improvisations.
