About this Event
Join singer-songwriter Gareth Davies-Jones for a captivating evening of songs and stories tracing one man's musical pilgrimage, walking from Holy Island to Durham Cathedral.
In June 2025, Gareth walked the route of St Oswald's Way and the Way of Light Northern Saints Way with a small guitar on his back, performing concerts for local communities everywhere he stopped.
Gareth's journey provided inspiration, stories and perspectives for a new collection of songs, forming the basis of this evening's concert. Expect an uplifting experience as we journey in story and song with Gareth as he walks through the wild beauty of the Northumberland and Durham coast and countryside.
Singer, songwriter, story-teller and producer, Gareth has been writing, recording and performing as a professional musician for over twenty years. The lead songwriter from Howay The Lasses, a collaborator with folk luminaries like Megson, Calum Stewart, Celtish and Yvonne Lyon, from community halls to concert halls, he has travelled the length of the country armed with a rich distinctive voice and two decades worth of perceptive, compelling songwriting spanning sixteen albums and song-writing collaborations. His solo performances are known for gathering people together, inviting audiences to travel with him into a world of landscapes, history, characters and causes all underpinned with assured vocals and the warmth and vibrancy of a beautifully played array of stringed instruments. An evening with Gareth is as much story-telling adventure as it is musical entertainment.
