Shakin Stevens at Buxton Opera HouseDate: Sun 23rd Apr Time: 19:30 The platinum selling rock n’ roll singer is released a surprisingly introspective Blues album called Echoes Of Our Times this year, which is a musical tribute to his family’s ancestry. His research revealed tales of poverty and strife in the Cornish copper mines, of bravery and loss in war, of children suffering, family secrets and feuds. The album has been incredibly well received, with Uncut saying he “indulges his inner Woody Guthrie to surprisingly impressive effect” and Q Magazine describing the record as “A radical change of direction…A set of songs full of sincerity and forcefulness…An album which entirely succeeds on its own terms”. He was also invited to record a documentary with BBC Radio 2 about the process of making the album.
