Absolute Acoustic

Thursday 27 February - from 7.30pm

​

 

We’re thrilled to welcome three outstanding, storytelling singer-songwriters for the next edition of the See You Down The Front podcast’s Absolute Acoustic series.

 

Topping the bill on this occasion is the wonderful Toria Wooff, who is joined by Joe Martin and Greg Oldfield for what promises to be a vivid and compelling evening of songcraft.

 

A painter, poet, songwriter and storyteller, music is just one facet of Toria Wooff’s wildly creative imagination which metamorphoses in many forms. Steeped in gothic romanticism, pagan and Germanic tradition, Toria’s unique view of the world is enchanted by an alchemy of ‘70s sound and vision.

 

Joe Martin is a modern-day troubadour; a seasoned songwriter and performer having played to tens of thousands of people across the UK and Europe over the past decade. His musical journey has seen him collaborate with some of Nashville’s top songwriters including Johnny Garcia of Garth Brooks’ band, hit writer Jill Collucci and Aaron Raitiere at RCA studios on Music Row.  His sound is deeply rooted in the classic American style, with storytelling and lyrics a main focus of Joe’s songwriting. Honing his sound over the years on the road, Joe’s personal stories have culminated in his debut album ‘Empty Passenger Seat’ which has been released to much acclaim.

 

Greg Oldfield has been at the forefront of the Halton music scene with his own popular Industrial Folk genre and its successful Smoking Dragons project.  A singer/songwriter with songs that reflect local interest, that sit with words that resound, and characters that you seem to know even if you haven’t met them yet.

 

All tickets £10.  Bar open from 6.30pm.

 

Please note, our museum galleries are closed during events.
