Following last year's sell-out visit, Fairport are back on tour presenting a mix of long-established favourite and some surprises from albums old and new. 

Fairport Convention have been entertaining music lovers for over half a century, having formed in 1967. During that time the band that launched British folk-rock has seen many changes, but one thing has remained the same - Fairport’s passion for performance.

Fairport Convention have won a BBC Lifetime Achievement Award and Radio 2 listeners voted their ground-breaking album Liege & Lief 'The Most Influential Folk Album of All Time'. Their story has been celebrated with television documentaries on BBC Four and Sky Arts.

The band features founding member Simon Nicol on guitar and vocals, Dave Pegg on bass guitar, Ric Sanders on violin, Chris Leslie on fiddle, mandolin and vocals. Fairport will be joined on stage by former member Dave Mattacks on Drums.

Our opening act for the tour is young singer/songwriter Danny Bradley, whose performance will be a wonderful start to your evening.

'Stuffing their set with a surprising amount of new material for a vintage act, Fairport are still clearly having fun and brought the house down.' The Guardian

'Fairport is an institution, a festival, purveyors of memories, and keepers of the folk flame. But most of all they are a brilliant live band.' Folk & Tumble

Yn dilyn ymweliad a werthodd bob tocyn llynedd, bydd Fairport yn dychwelyd gyda chymysgedd o ffefrynnau Fairport sydd wedi hen ennill eu plwyf a chaneuon annisgwyl o hen albymau ac albymau newydd.

Mae Fairport Convention wedi bod yn diddanu pobl sy'n hoff o gerddoriaeth ers dros hanner canrif, ar ôl cael ei sefydlu ym 1967. Yn ystod y cyfnod hwnnw mae'r band a lansiodd roc gwerin Prydain wedi gweld llawer o newidiadau, ond mae un peth wedi aros yn gyson - angerdd Fairport am berfformio.

Mae Fairport Convention wedi ennill Gwobr Cyflawniad Oes y BBC a phleidleisiodd gwrandawyr Radio 2 eu halbwm arloesol Liege & Lief, 'yr albwm gwerin mwyaf dylanwadol erioed'. Dathlwyd eu stori mewn rhaglenni dogfen teledu ar BBC Four a Sky Arts.

Mae'r band yn cynnwys y sylfaenwr Simon Nicol ar y gitâr ac yn canu, Dave Pegg ar y gitâr fas, Ric Sanders ar y ffidil, Chris Leslie ar y ffidil, y mandolin ac yn canu. Bydd y cyn-aelod Dave Mattacks yn ymuno â Fairport ar y llwyfan, ar y drymiau.

Act agoriadol y daith fydd y canwr/ysgrifennwr caneuon ifanc Danny Bradley, â’i berfformiad gwych a fydd yn ffordd ddelfrydol o ddechrau’ch noson.
