The Tom Mcconville Band - White Room Music Cafe

Delighted to welcome the incredible talent that is Mr Tom McConville along with his brilliant band, to The White Room this November for the first time.

Having a previous 'BBC Folk Musician of the Year' coming to DH9 is rather exciting & we look forward to welcoming Tom & his band to town.

In case you didn't know about Tom...

The Tom McConville band is surely the most entertaining, exciting four-piece operating on the festival circuit today. Fronted by the incendiary Fiddle playing of BBC Radio 2 Musician of the Year Tom McConville (who Seth Lakeman regards as his biggest influence), this band also features Shona Kipling, herself a BBC Folk Award nominee, and one of the finest accordion players in the country. Add to that David Newey's 'incredible, unique guitar playing' (BBC Radio 6), and Phil Murray - the man Mike Harding called 'the best acoustic bass player in Britain', and you have a force to be reckoned with. Whilst this band has a backbone in traditional music, you'll hear country, jazz, blues and rock and roll, all being delivered by an acoustic four piece.
