Tom Paxton.

Born in Chicargo, America, Tom was raised in Oklahoma. He studied Theatre at college with the initial idea of becoming an actor. His musical activities predominated, however, and he decided to become more active in this area.
In the army he was posted to New York. As many had done before him, he started singing in Coffee Bars. After the army he remained in New York and his singing took off to the point where he remains one of the great singer/songwriters of his age.
Tom prefers to perform in concerts rather than clubs, saying that if he has to leave home he might as well reach out to the biggest possible number of people he can.

Other acts will be added to this section over time

Ian Bruce

At first Ian became known for singing his own compositions. Of late he has sung more traditional material which has made him renowned in this country in the United states. He has many albums to his credit, some containing material from the poet Burns . The most recent is: The Orange and the Rowan.
Performing at Hereford Courtyard on Thursday 7th May 2004
