About this concert
Relevant, thought-provoking songs that would make Woody Guthrie Proud! (Acoustic Magazine).
Megson are Stu Hanna (Vocals, Octave Mandola, Tenor Banjo, Guitar) and Debbie Hanna (Vocals, Accordion, Whistle), and here at Square Roots Towers we've been massive fans of this highly original husband and wife team for many years, having seen them wow thousands of new fans at their many festival appearances over the last few years. If you've seen them before then you'll already know how great they are, but if you haven't then you really are in for a treat! We last had them at the Tower 4 years ago and naturally they sold the place out, and we're delighted to welcome them back again at long last!
'Simply Brilliant' - The Sunday Express
Stu and Debs bring an infectious mix of heavenly vocals, lush harmonies and driving rhythmic guitars. Megson have gained fame on the British folk and roots scene, not only for their arresting & intelligent songwriting, but for their exquisite musicianship and northern humour. As fRoots Magazine puts it If you don't like the music here then you have a problem!.
Seeped in history and offering inspirational tales, with this album you're dining with delicate harmonies and listening so deep you're immersed in the lush, passionate creation of one of the most exciting contemporary folk groups in the UK. (Maverick *****)
