Steve Tilston & Jez Lowe Live Music & Concerts


two of the UK acoustic/folk scene's finest songwriters join forces for a series of concerts filled with songs and music, chat and insights.

Head to head, neck and neck (guitar necks, that is!) listen in as they rekindle the spontaneity of their late-night living-room song swaps. Questions, answers, anecdotes and anarchy…
and a very special and entertaining evening of music.

Steve and Jez have been pals for years and this is something they’ve wanted to do for some time but, apart from a few select shows in the USA, busy schedules haven’t allowed them to tour in the UK... until now that is!

Steve Tilston has been described as “a complete guitarist,” “a singer songwriter of rare talent” and “absurdly accomplished.” He’s toured with John Renbourn’s Ship of Fools, traditional singer Maggie Boyle, with MaartinAllcock and Pete Zorn as WAZ!, Ballet Rambert, and with daughter Martha. He’s the writer of the classics The Slipjigs and Reels, The Naked Highwayman and Here’s to Tom Paine and his songs have been covered by a who’s who of the folk scene. He’s won a BBC Folk Award; best original song, appeared on Later with Jools Holland and BBC4 Songwriters Circle and is the inspiration for the Hollywood movie Danny Collins starring Al Pacino!He’s also published a novel. His new CD Truth to Tell is out now.

Jez Lowe a double nomination in the 2015 BBC Folk Awards - best singer and best new song, was a timely reminder of Jez’s standing in the UK folk and acoustic music scene. He’s a major player in the award-winning BBC series The Radio Ballads. He also tours with his band the Bad Pennies, with James Keelaghan& Archie Fisher as Men At Words; with Bob Fox, Billy Mitchell & Benny Graham as The Pitmen Poets and with Maggie Holland, Chris Parkinson & Roger Wilson as The Broonzies. He’s one of the busiest live performers in the country and his songs are among the most widely sung by others. The Ballad Beyond was released last year.
