Steve Knightley and the Winter Yards Band bring their folk-noir 'The Long Road Tour', with songs from the Winter Yards album and new material, supported by Megan Henwood.
Steve Knightley & the Winter Yards Band are back at the Jim Marshall Auditorium on Wednesday 25 November, part of The Long Road Tour. It's a return to the stage for Knightley and his band following a successful run of shows, with this autumn date bringing them to Milton Keynes.
Most people will know Knightley as a co-founder of the folk phenomenon Show of Hands. This project, however, sits in a different space. He describes the style as 'folk noir'—poetic songwriting paired with a cinematic acoustic sound that's won over audiences across the UK. The set pulls from the Winter Yards album, but it's not just a trip through the record; it also features powerful new material written on the road, with songs that look at landscape, community and the changing world around us.
The band around him is a tight acoustic trio: David Delarre on guitar, John Parker on double bass and Evan Carson on percussion. They're supported by Megan Henwood, who opens the night.
