Anthony John Clarke and Colum Sands

Following sold-out shows with Dave Pegg of Fairport Convention and Countdown legend Richard Digance, Anthony John Clarke returns with another special guest: Colum Sands.

Sands, a member of the renowned Sands Family from County Down, has performed in over thirty countries. His songs, often filled with humour and keen observations of life, have earned international appeal. A skilled broadcaster, Sands has presented BBC Radio Ulster's Folk Club, BBC Radio 2 programmes, and RTÉ's Rootin’ About. Since releasing his first album in 1981, he’s become a respected songwriter, with his songs covered by artists like Billy Connolly and Maddy Prior. With ten albums, Sands continues to build a reputation for powerful songs that connect people and generations.

Anthony John Clarke, a fixture of the folk scene for over 30 years, is known for his witty, entertaining shows and iconic songs.

This is the only 2025 performance featuring Clarke and Sands together – an evening of great music and laughter from two artists who are perfectly in tune with their material, their audience, and each other.

Ticket prices for this event include a venue restoration levy.
