“Toby Hay’s New Music for the 12 String Guitar showcases the Welsh instrumentalist’s glowing, intricate style” — The Guardian

Toby will be joined by C Joynes, who has ploughed a singular furrow through solo guitar, with a body of work incorporating English folk-tunes alongside North & West African music, and lifting proto-minimalist and improvised techniques from the European classical and avant-garde traditions. Shifting away from the electric guitar of his most recent solo activities, he’s currently exploring the uses of an amplified archtop guitar, exploiting the instrument’s potential by placing intricate parlour music alongside overdriven garage blues throw-downs and the brittle ringing tones of free improvisation.

Doors open and bar at 6.30pm.

As an event attendee, you will be eligible for free parking.
