Saturday 28 August
12noon-1pm
FREE
Join us on our terrace for some fabulous free live gigs Saturday lunchtimes from 12noon-1pm. Grab a blanket and a picnic or games for the family and enjoy some superb musical talent whilst relaxing in the beautiful surroundings of Flowerfield Park.
Two well-travelled musicians, PETER MCVEIGH from Belfast (voice, piano, guitar)and ANDY DUNLOP (from the internationally acclaimed TRAVIS) from Glasgow (guitars, piano), feel the symbiotic relationship between being on tour and the lives of sailors, adrift and yearning for home yet in love with the routine, the camaraderie and the thrill of the journey.
Their songs are borne out of such stories of travel, loss and the search for somewhere to make a home. Drawing from their many different influences, McVeigh from his many years as a singer/songwriter and from being a writer for hire for pretty much every genre from rock to hip hop, Dunlop from his many years as the guitarist for Travis. These styles pull together to make a unique sound as in love with travel as its creators.
A genre and continent-spanning duo of musicians and writers, bolstered by a collective of their musician friends, are just at the start of their journey, just leaving port, but look forward to you joining them on their travels ahead right here in Flowerfield Park.
