Legend Danny Thompson will preside over an evening of musical adventure featuring Darrell Scott, Luka Bloom, Eddi Reader, Martin Simpson and Tim O’Brien. With the musical participants pulling influences from four corners of the globe, this promises to be a veritable musical cornucopia. The show will also feature a special tribute to his long-time friend John Martyn who he toured and recorded with for over 20 years with John’s songs being interpreted by this formidable line up.
Danny Thompson’s career has spanned 55 years and counting. He has played with virtually every major artist over the past five decades and features on over 1,000 albums and countless singles, soundtracks and sessions. Having started in the house band at Ronnie Scott’s at the tender age of 16, his musical journey has taken him from the seedy back streets of Soho to the rarefied atmosphere of Carnegie Hall, as well as encompassing musical collaborations with prominent musicians from Africa, India, America and Europe.
