Richard Strange - Lilybud - Kevin Hewick

 RICHARD STRANGE - LILYBUD - KEVIN HEWICK

Musician Pub: 5th February 2023

What an extraordinary, wonderful joyful afternoon at the Musician Pub on Sunday afternoon... simply wonderful....

In a beautifully relaxed and warm atmosphere things were started by Lilybud who delivered a simply magnificent 3 songs... the first so emotional in content that it nearly had me in tears... the third a cover of a spiritual by Mahalia Jackson which raised the goosebumps... fabulous voice, great songs and a superb (but all too brief) performance




Followed by a set from local singer songwriter Kevin Hewick, maybe the best set i have heard from him.






Then the main man, Richard Strange came on... and he was a revelation... his show was a history of Richard Strange and the Doctors of Madness... a host of wonderful tales, great songsand fascinating film clips... this performance was interesting, at times hilarious, hugely entertaining, warm and a total delight... a different kind of gig but a serious contender for the gig of the year... On top of that what a thoroughly lovely man
Please come back soon Richard!!







Keep music live... keep music real... support your local venues
