Bob Fox & Billy Mitchell

12 September 2010
Chapel Arts Centre
With their wonderful selection of northern songs that spans Jimmy Nail’s Big River to Lindisfarne’s ‘Meet Me On The Corner all delivered with consummate musicianship plus the duos on-stage banter which has been known to regularly reduce audiences to gibbering wrecks, Bob and Billy are famously famous for a thoroughly entertaining evening of delightful and personable engagement.
Featuring: Billy Mitchell - Billy started playing the guitar in the early sixties when they were all made of wood and mostly the same colour. Moving through the years from beat to folk Billy’s bands include time spent with The Callies, Jack the Lad, Maxie and Mitch and Lindisfarne. Since Lindisfarne’s retirement in 2003, Billy has embarked on a very successful solo career and has recently dipped back into his ‘folk roots by collaborating with Bob Fox.

Bob Fox: is one of Britain’s most respected and internationally acclaimed performers. Ralph McTell
“As soon as I heard Bob Fox sing I realised that he must have one of the best voices in England. I have always regarded him as an artiste of great integrity and ability". Bob has twice been nominated as Folk Singer of the Year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and was invited to sing and play at Celtic Connections as part of a performance of the 2006 Radio Ballads.
