Greg Russell

A very special gig—we’re pleased to welcome multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Greg Russell to the Live to Your Living Room stage.

No longer touring, this is a rare opportunity to see Greg play a curated selection of his favourite songs. Some of which he has written, some of which he has borrowed, all of which he loves singing very much.

What to expect: Powerful, emotive music from an artist inspired by the history and politics of the world around us.

About the artist

A two-time BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winner, Greg has toured extensively over the last ten years, both solo and as part of duos and groups. He is well known for his partnership with Ciaran Algar, as well as supporting musicians including Karine Polwart and Lau.

Greg is also known for his creative involvement in folk opera The Transports and Shake the Chains – celebrating the role of music in social change and protest alongside folk luminaries including Peggy Seeger and Nancy Kerr.

“The first thing that strikes you about Greg Russell is the energy and passion he invests in the songs he chooses to sing.” – Bright Young Folk
