Multi-award winning singer/songwriter, Steve Pledger, pays his first visit to Fairycroft House this Autumn with a selection of brand-new songs, as well as many from across his critically-acclaimed albums, long with a few carefully selected covers as well. His blend of blistering social commentary, stark honesty, and fearless tenderness has marked Steve out as someone unafraid to create his own place in the musical landscape, and has led to Folk & Tumble describing him as 'One of the finest protest singer/songwriters of his generation.".
This event is free to come along to, and will operate on a PAY-AS-YOU-FEEL basis on the day. Donations are greatly appreciated.
Doors: 2:30pm. Music: 3pm
