ROY REMEMBERED

For 53 years Roy Bailey played at Towersey Festival and for many of those he was the festival’s Patron. Roy passed away in December 2018, not many months after a brilliant performance at the 2018 Festival.

In honour of his countless achievements, both on and off stage, as well as his long-running association with the festival, the festival will present Roy Remembered: A Celebration of the Life and Times of Roy Bailey. LINK

An afternoon of music, stories and collaborations, the concert will feature an A-Z of friends and associates, all of whom worked closely with Roy over the years.

Among those appearing will be songwriter and BBC 6Music presenter Tom Robinson, Martin Simpson, Andy Cutting, John Kirkpatrick, The Wilson Family, Boff Whalley (Chumbawamba), Stephen Taberner (The Spooky Men’s Chorale), Ray Hearne, Kit and Max Bailey, Nancy Kerr, James Fagan, and Marc Block.

With host Steve Heap, they’ll be sharing their memories of Roy and performing choice songs from his vast repertoire.
