About the event
Jon Palmer writes songs from the heart that draw on the best of the traditional and the contemporary folk world. A master of the unforgettable chorus, you will find it difficult to leave one of his performances without a song or two lodged firmly in your head.
The Jon Palmer Trio is a reduced version of his award winning 6 piece Jon Palmer Acoustic Band. Half the size in fact, but with the same energy, enthusiasm, and commitment.
Featuring Jon on vocals and guitars, Wendy Ross (Magna Carta) on violin and vocals, and Lee Wellbrook on mandolins and vocals, you can expect plenty of songs from the band’s latest critically acclaimed album, Vacca Wall, a few new songs, and lots of the old bangers….
