Mark and David bring their singing, songwriting, strumming, and swigging buddies from the badlands of the Cheshire Plain to the Portico.£15 plus booking fee. Doors open 6pm and event starts 6.30pm.
Mark Radcliffe has been on BBC national radio since the early nineties and currently hosts the Radio 2 Folk Show and weekend breakfast on 6Music. He is also the author of five bestselling books, the latest being ‘Crossroads – In Search Of The Moments That Changed Music’. Previously a member of folk-rock bands The Family Mahone and Galleon Blast, he is currently one half of electronic duo UNE and drummer and lyricist for Americana band Fine Lines whose lead singer and guitarist is…..
David Boardman. A consummate guitarist and guitar teacher, David cut his teeth on the rock circuit with Darktown Jubilee touring not only the UK but also North America and Canada. A gifted visual artist, Boardman met Radcliffe in their hometown of Knutsford where their writing partnership soon
began to flourish.
Their act is one of classic simplicity: two voices, two guitars, some great original songs, the odd carefully chosen cover and the occasional rambling anecdote. They have recently recorded their debut duo album ‘First Light’ and have somehow managed to hit the sweet spot between David wanting to do dozens of takes before carefully selecting the best bits and Mark
thinking it was alright the first time!
