Following the success of our Spring 2009 shows, we're delighted to announce that we'll be back at the Halls in 2010. We'll be kicking off with a special one-off show featuring the award-winning Grammy nominee and Nashville legend DARRELL SCOTT (www.darrellscott.com) on Friday 22nd January.

An outstanding singer-songwriter in his own right, Darrell has written songs for over 70 top artists, including Keb Mo, Dixie Chicks, Faith Hill and Hank Williams. He's recorded with Joan Baez, Steve Earle, Kate Rusby and Randy Travis and appeared, to rapturous acclaim, with Beth Nielsen Chapman at last summer's Cambridge Folk Festival.

He's a truly independent artist and has released six wonderful albums to date on his own label, Full Light Records. One of these, Theatre Of The Unheard was voted one of Rolling Stone magazine’s top albums of 2003, comparing him to "...Springsteen at his best...". He's received rave reviews from across the music industry including:

“He stands head and shoulders alongside such artists as Richard Thompson, Albert Lee, and Eric Clapton.” Green Man Review

“It is in concert that one truly discovers that Darrell Scott is one monstrous musician…. this is music that should be heard everywhere.” Folk & Acoustic Music Exchange

“…an astonishing vocal range…His guitar prowess is equally impressive; with an arsenal of impeccable acoustic techniques and an electric guitar that is downright incendiary.” Acoustic Guitar Magazine

“one word – genius.” Gritz Magazine

His music covers a broad spectrum of country, blues and folk and his seemingly limitless talent both as a songwriter and a performer make him a genuinely distinctive and creative force in contemporary music.

Supporting Darrell will be Louise Latham (www.myspace.com/louiselatham) and Still (www.myspace.com/stilluk), two of the many outstanding acts that have appeared at our weekly shows at the Station Hotel, Hither Green, London.
