Phil Beer was the multi-instrumental half of the award-winning acoustic duo, Show of Hands, one of the most popular acts on the UK folk music scene.  With a professional career of over 40 years, Phil has a great deal of material to draw on for his solo appearances, which are an eclectic mix of traditional tunes, covers of Springsteen or The Hollies, together with his own compositions and songs from his contemporaries.

All are songs and music of memory and significance sung in the subtle and melodic Phil Beer style and interjected with musings and amusings to provide truly personal experience for his audience. This will be a treat of past and current favourites from a much loved musician making a welcome return to Broseley’s Birchmeadow Centre

Sally Jones

After her highly successful EDITH PIAF show at the Birch last November. Sally Jones returns to pay tribute to another one of her idols - the legendary songwriter Cole Porter.

Having received critical acclaim in Toronto, Canada for this show,  Let’s Misbehave is a delightful celebration of the Golden Era of Swing with such classics as “Night & Day”, “You’re The Top”, “Just One Of Those Things”, “So In Love”,  “My Heart Belongs to Daddy”, “I Get A Kick Out of You”, “Let’s Do It” and many more.  

This thoroughly entertaining and uplifting performance also gives a fascinating insight into the colourful and eventful life of this bon vivant. A life full of glamour, wild parties, excess, challenges and also tragedy. 

An evening not to be missed.
