Gerry will be performing a Christmas show with his usual mayhem, unpredictability, musical gems and fun.
Gerry Colvin with added Christmas ... and Trish Power on accordion.
We are so lucky to get Gerry Colvin to play here. Grab a seat while you can.
This multi talented singer songwriter and Folk-Pop legend performs all his own material, combining catchy melodies with thoughtful lyrics on love, society, angst …and Johnny Cash!
His striking be-suited stage presence is unusual; combining the smooth with the plain daft and the afore-mentioned Man in Black.
Genius? Madcap? Maverick? Yes. And more.
In the words of Phil Beer, “Gerry Colvin is a writer of great substance who is able to give us something that has been largely missing in English music for a long time. His subjects and characters are clearly defined and his songs create strong images and stories which can make us both laugh and cry in the same breath. This man is unique and unforgettable. The songs are brilliant. He should be a household name. Go see him.”
This concert will be live streamed for the first hour only after which there will be an exclusive set by Gerry for the audience in the studio.
There will be a bar and cake. Always cake.
Rosslyn Court
Expect a small, seated, friendly, quirky, listening venue with a heart – we have a tiny bar selling beer, wine, cider, gin! and hot and cold drinks -nibbly stuff and always a cake. The venue is accessible, on one level. You will be seated at tables or in rows, according to numbers in the audience. If you need to use your phone for texting or lyrics, please turn the brightness of your phone down and consider sitting near the back to minimise the impact.
Arrive at 7pm to get a seat, a drink and a chat before the concert.
The first hour of concerts is livestreamed on YouTube. You can watch it any time after 7.30 on the night of the concert via the Rosslyn Court Website. There is an exclusive second set for the audience in the room, including a Q&A with the performers. We ask you to make a donation, please, when you watch the livestream to help us to continue this service.
In buying a ticket you are entered for the Rosslyn Court raffle. You may win a CD …or a “Who Gives A Crap” emergency toilet roll! WGAC donate half their profits to water charities and are plastic free. People who donate or engage with the live chat during the concert are also entered into the raffle.
There is usually a floor singer and often a 2-minute community slot informing us of what happens locally. The second half starts with a Q&A and is not livestreamed. If you think of something you want to know more about in the first half, just ask! Sometimes there is another floor song.
The concerts usually finish well before 10. Except for Tim Edey because he is unstoppable. (We also run a B&B here hahaha)
If you want to view the livestream after midnight of the concert date then go to the livestream option on the website where all the old livestreams live.
Tickets are usually £12. We have a few at £6 and some at £18 to help us to subsidise the concessionary tickets. Sometimes tickets are more.
