A Chris Conway songs concert is a unique show - "Songs of Love & Peace & Outer Space" is his slogan and that sums it up well.
Think David Crosby on a journey taking in Ireland, a jazz club, and Outer Space. Funny at one moment, magical and moving the next. (you need to hear The Alien Jellyfish Song!).
Add to this his multi-instrumental wizardry on guitar, piano, kalimba, & Irish whistles, and his entertaining chat and soulful voice.
He has released 16 studio songs albums of his own songs and more in collaborations.
He's played with the cream of the UK folk and folk/rock scene.
Vikki Clayton has recorded 3 of his songs, and in her band, he played Cropredy Festival twice playing to 20,000 people. He also played at the Edinburgh Fringe 5 times.
He's toured with The Monkees' Peter Tork, played with members of Jethro Tull & Fairport Convention, as well as Martin Carthy, Sally Barker, Pete Morton, Tommy Emmanuel and Talvin Singh.
He has opened for legends...
Bob Geldof, Roy Wood, Richie Havens, Country Joe McDonald, Jefferson Starship and Arthur Brown amongst others at packed house
