Reg Meuross live at Halsway Manor

TICKETS HERE
Regs’ reputation as a singer, songwriter and storyteller has been well earned. From gigging in village halls and folk clubs to playing the Royal Albert Hall and huge festival stages in the UK and abroad, Reg consistently entrances his audiences with songs soulfully delivered with melodic tenor vocals and exemplary guitar playing. He is now touring with new album 12 Silk Handkerchiefs and characters from 12 other superb albums.
Described by Mark Radcliffe as a “brilliant singer-songwriter and true troubadour with a social conscience,” it’s not all protest; as well as story songs which bring characters from history to life and comment on life around him Reg also writes and sings some of the most heart-aching love songs ever written, performed with depth and spellbinding delivery. “There’s something special about the way he writes and delivers a song” said Townes Van Zandt. Reg has that rare gift of being able to touch people through his songs and performance, on a really human level, his words and music painting pictures that remain with the listener long after the song has been sung, accompanying himself masterfully on guitar and captivating audiences with his beautiful tenor voice.
“When you have 2000 people singing along, you’re doing something right.” Great British Folk Festival
“One of the most talented storytellers of our generation” Pennyblack Music
“Powerful and moving songwriting” Martin Chilton, The Telegraph
“A mighty songwriter and an equally fine singer” Martin Carthy
He is coming to Halsway Manor as visiting tutor for a week-long DIY Songwriting course. On this Thursday evening we open the doors for a public gig.
