Mark Chadwick (Levellers) + Guests7:30pm Friday 18th October, The Craufurd Arms, Milton Keynes
One of the UK’s most successful songwriters, Mark Chadwick, has co-written 20 chart singles and 6 Top 40 albums (including a Number 1) as part of the Levellers, the band he has fronted for over 25 years. Still going strong, the Levellers are festival favourites and have cemented their cherished status with headline performances at Glastonbury, Isle Of Wight, Cambridge Folk Festival, Bestival and Boomtown and many European and UK events and in 2003 they successfully created their own annual Beautiful Days Festival which takes place in August at Escot Park in Devon.
During this time Mark has released two solo albums ‘All the Pieces’ and ‘Moment’ and his upfront and personal solo performance will see him play a mixture of material from these albums and Levellers classics. Be warned, Mark will have you up dancing!
Guest support: B-Sydes
"Modern folk that’s as powerful as it is personal.
Modern and authentic folk delivered with power, personality and purpose. B-SYDES (aka rising singer-songwriter Ben Sydes) has been capturing the hearts and minds of audiences since his first EPs and critically acclaimed albums.
Having shared the stage with the likes of Frank Turner, Gaz Brookfield, Ferocious Dog, Beans on Toast, Nick Parker, Crazy Arm and countless more, he’s honed his craft, found his true voice, and has set himself up to chase the many ambitions within his music.
It’s on stage where Sydes really comes into his own, where his punk-tinged troubadour energy is allowed to breathe.
Just listen to his single ‘The Desperate Dance’ - It’s the truth of the ordinary that lies at the heart of Sydes’ music. It’s about breathing fun into real life. There’s no far-flung fantasy at work here, just a voice trying to music that’s extraordinary but relatable.
The next challenge comes as Sydes continues work on his third album. With a host of friends and collaborators on board and even more ideas, his next release will take him to ever more adventurous places."
Tickets priced £20 are on sale from Seetickets from Monday 12th February.
