Gary Digan, aka The Gerry Cinnamon Experience, brings his upbeat acoustic tribute to Gerry Cinnamon to The Victoria in Swindon.
The Gerry Cinna-Man Experience plays The Victoria on Friday 6 November, a tribute to the Scottish singer-songwriter Gerry Cinnamon. The man behind the act is Gary Digan, who bills himself as the UK's premier and definitive tribute to Cinnamon.
If you're not familiar with the original, Cinnamon is known for his acoustic-led songs and his long-running, independent approach to the music industry. Digan's set follows that same blueprint: upbeat acoustic guitars, soulful harmonica, and heartfelt vocals. He doesn't just run through the songs as they are on record, either — he plays every track differently, and uses a loop pedal to build harmonies and a pounding kick drum to keep the energy up. It's a one-man show that fills out to sound like a full band, and the loop pedal is a big part of how he builds the sound throughout the night.
It's a tribute act that's built a following of its own, with Digan consistently selling out venues across the country. The whole thing is built around the songs, so if you're a fan of Cinnamon's writing, that's what you'll be hearing. The Victoria is in Swindon, at 88 Victoria Road, SN1 3BD.

The show runs from 20:00 to 23:30, so it's a full evening's set rather than a quick turn. If you're heading down, you'll find it on Friday 6 November at The Victoria, 88 Victoria Road, Swindon, SN1 3BD.
