Mark Dowding play Saturday 19th September from 1pm - 2pm
Although he definitely does sing folk songs, he is also a historian and a dialect scholar and for every song he sings, he can give you the history of that song: who wrote it, the social climate at the time it was written and it's meaning.
Mark is also a multi-instrumentalist, including amongst his collection, concertina, guitar, banjo and mandolin.
He has travelled and worked around the world, his combination of music and lyrics tell stories of some of his own experiences and those of others he met along the way.
