John Grant sings the songs of Patsy Cline with Richard Hawley and Band
Plus support Conchúr White
Two of the best live artists around come together in celebration of the legendary country star.
Singer Patsy Cline paved the way for a thousand imitations – bridging pop and country with her unforgettable voice and star quality before her life was tragically cut short.
In this performance, a pair of modern-day icons take on her repertoire for the very first time: John Grant and Richard Hawley.
Known for his searing wit, tenderness and commanding stage presence, singer-songwriter John Grant lends his commanding vocals to proceedings, while Richard Hawley and his band – often considered one of the best live acts in the UK – bring their sumptuous live sound.
Drawing from a songbook full of classics like Walkin’ After Midnight and Crazy, you’ll hear the crème de la crème of country pop from some of the finest performers around.
With songs spanning romance, heartbreak and drama – with a good dollop of joy – this is set to be a real sonic and visual feast. Cowboy boots optional.
John says:
'I’m very excited to be singing the songs of Patsy Cline whose music and voice I’ve been a big fan of since the mid 80s when the movie Sweet Dreams came out. I’ve been singing those songs ever since and now I get to do that with one of my favourite singers and musicians, the incredible Richard Hawley and his spectacular band.'
