Chris Wood

Venue: The Corn Hall
Acclaimed British singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist known for both his solo work and many collaborations in the U.K. folk scene, Chris Wood’s writing is permeated with love and wry intelligence, it is uplifting and challenging. 

Tom Robinson and Chris Difford are fans while Stick in the Wheel and The Unthanks look to him as an influence.  Winner of 6 BBC Folk Awards, Chris Wood was a key member of The Imagined Village along with Billy Bragg and Martin Carthy.
 
'Chris Wood might be the Ken Loach of songwriting. Very political, but at the same time full of compassion, and he grows sharper and more acute with each passing album. He’s good, quite probably the very best we have today, and we need him more than ever.’ fRoots Magazine
