Alvar Smith
at The Alder Bar, Sheffield
Raised in Norfolk and heavily influenced by such earlier Norfolk singers as Walter Pardon and Peter Bellamy, Damien is a stylish and distinctive singer, either a Capella or accompanied on guitar or concertina. Though he has lived in West Yorkshire for over 20 years he retains a strong East Anglian identity. Best known in recent years for his critically acclaimed stage shows ‘The Demon Barbers XL’ and ‘The Lock In’, Damien is now returning to the traditional songs of East Anglia that ignited his passion in folk music.
