Much to the delight of fans and the band, folk-rock legends Fairport Convention are back on the road again in fall 2021 following the forced hiatus of the past year-and-a-half.

Fairport Convention has been entertaining music lovers for over half a century, and during that time, the band that launched British folk-rock has seen many changes. But one thing has remained the same – Fairport’s passion for performance.

This year’s Fall Tour concert setlist will present a mix of long-established Fairport favourites and some surprises from albums old and new including their latest album Shuffle & Go which was released in 2020. The tour will feature twelve dates, kicking-off in Maidenhead on Thursday, October 14, and concluding in Nuneaton on Saturday, October 30. Visit the band’s official website for further information.

Fairport Convention have won a BBC Lifetime Achievement Award and Radio 2 listeners voted their ground-breaking album Liege & Lief ‘The Most Influential Folk Album of All Time’. Their story has been celebrated with television documentaries on BBC Four and Sky Arts.

The band features founding member Simon Nicol on guitar and vocals, Dave Pegg on bass guitar, Ric Sanders on violin, Chris Leslie on fiddle, mandolin and vocals, and Gerry Conway on percussion.
