This Is Floyd - A Tribute To Pink Floyd - experience the mesmerising sounds of Pink Floyd like never before.
Since 2007, the band have been refining and perfecting their 2 1/2 hour theatre show, concentrating on the timeless classics that defined an era. Initially formed in the SW, but with members from all parts of the UK, the band are now expanding their show with expectations to tour the whole of the UK and Ireland in the next few years.
From the ethereal ‘Echoes’ to the wonderment of ‘Shine On You Crazy Diamond’ and on to the haunting beauty of ‘High Hopes’, the performances are meticulously crafted to honour Pink Floyd’s legacy. The show includes custom designed thematic light shows, spectacular laser effects and the iconic circular video screen.
The band members themselves have over 150
years of combined experience in music production, recording, choreography and
touring. Sit back and enjoy a moving experience, which will be truly
unforgettable, as they pay homage to one of the greatest bands in history.

Peter Knight’s Gigspanner Trio
New Album Preview Tour
"There’s
something of the proverbial elder statesman about Peter Knight, in terms of his
place in music, which cannot be overstated. It’s not just in the quality of his
playing...there’s a focus on the sheer inventiveness of Peter’s playing, in the
adventurous arrangements he shares with his collaborators, and in his musical
leadership”
Northern
Sky Magazine
Since his
inaugural performance with the fledgling Steeleye Span in 1970, Peter Knight has
been a mainstay of the British folk scene.
Never one to
rest on his laurels, Peter has carved a reputation as a relentlessly questing
musician “as mercurial as quicksilver”, and it is never quite so
apparent as in his work with the various Gigspanner line-ups.
The Gigspanner
Trio is the beating heart from which all other lineups have evolved, and the
one most loved by many for the intimacy and joy manifest in their virtuosic
performances. Audiences revel in the opportunity to witness ‘up close and
personal’ the almost telepathic communication that exists between Peter,
guitarist Roger Flack and hand percussionist, Sacha Trochet.
This
concert is an extra special one as the Trio will be showcasing selected pieces
from their long waited new album.
Described by Folk Radio UK as one of the “most
quietly brilliant sets of musicians in the folk world and beyond”, they
take self-penned material along with music rooted in the British Isles and
beyond, and with the flick of a bow, a finely chosen chord or slip of a beat,
produce richly atmospheric arrangements “with notes seemingly plucked
from the stars and rhythms from the equator” (Spiral Earth).
