Phil Beer is the multi-instrumental half of the west countrys award-winning acoustic duo, Show of Hands. With a professional career of over 36 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 an almost personal audience. It is a treat of past and current favourites from one of the most popular musicians on the acoustic circuit.
Special guest 'Linda Moylan' will join Phil
Following on from 2021s acclaimed The Merchant, Linda Moylan releases her third full album The Fool on Talking Elephant Records.
The ten self and co-written songs all draw on Lindas London-Irish heritage and her life and experiences growing up in and around pre-gentrified East London. From the end-of-the-week devil-may-care of the single Irish Love Song, through the moon-in-the-gutter, kitchen sink realism of Venus In The Dirt, to the shabby lodgings of the homesick itinerant worker in Ancient Truth Linda captures the resilience of the working class, immigrant experience with the rare authenticity of someone who has lived and ultimately embraced it.
The Fool sees Linda stepping up to the co-producers role, making certain that her vision for the songs is the one that she presents to the listener. Her hand-picked cast of co-producers, co-writers and musicians both old faithfuls and new collaborators always support but never overshadow the essence of the songs and Lindas room-silencing voice.
The Fool is a definitive, mature and self-assured piece of work that completes Linda Moylans transition from gifted singer to fully-fledged and unique musical artist.
