SONG - Shammick Acoustic - Cathryn Craig & Brian Willoughby
The Pack o’ Cards Inn - High Street, Combe Martin, North Devon , EX34 0ET

International songwriters and performers, Cathryn and Brian are a world-class musical act, combining one of Nashville’s finest voices and one of the world’s greatest acoustic guitarists. Individually they have worked with the likes of the Righteous Brothers, Shel Silverstein, Mary Hopkin, The Strawbs and Nanci Griffith. They produce a wonderful weave of songs and stories and deliver them with an effortless stagecraft drawn from long roads travelled each in their own way and together. Now firmly settled back in Brian’s home country in Newry, they continue to develop their music, inspired by their new surroundings. Their ‘Alice’s Song’ was deservedly an Aled Jones ‘highlight of the year’ on BBC Radio 2, and there is no doubt that they make one of the best duos on the folk scene today. So come along and be truly entertained by a show which will have you tapping your feet, joining in with the choruses, enjoying their stories and being in awe of great singing and inventive guitar playing.
