12 May                                               Davy Louden

Davy will take us on a nostalgic trip with a lovely mix of his own songs and the songs of some legends from the 50s and 60s.
Some examples of Davy’s own work include "Just Another Love Song", "If I Had You" and "No Man’s Land", the fact that audiences sing along after just one chorus demonstrates the infectious quality of Davy’s song writing they could well have been the songs that Buddy Holly never wrote. His songs are delivered in a wonderful, gentle and engaging style.
If you like quantity as well as quality then come along to see this lovely humble performer…… You will not regret it…..
