Their duo show features songs with a strong North-Eastern flavour, celebrating the richness of life on both sides of the rivers Tyne and Wear and beyond.A rare opportunity to see Billy Mitchell and Bob Fox perform once again as a duo
after several years of highly successful individual work.
Both men are fine singers, masters of vocal harmony and musicians of stunning ability who can bring magic into any auditorium.
Billy Mitchell has done it all as a performer and songwriter. He spent eight years as
front man of the legendary Lindisfarne till their retirement in 2003. Billy’s influence
on the latter-day line-up of the band helped them to stay as respected and successful
as they had been prior to his recruitment.
Bob Fox has twice been nominated as Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Radio
2 Folk Awards. His masterful interpretation of traditional and contemporary songs
is one of his greatest strengths and during his time performing with Stu Luckley, they
won the Melody Maker Folk Album of the Year Award in 1978 with their album
‘Nowt So Good’ll Pass’.
Billy and Bob’s close rapport, great songs and lashings of wit make this warm-hearted
show ideal for audiences of virtually any age or musical persuasion.
