About the event
Join us for a one-off Songwriters Circle with Rob, Katie and Anna when they will perform selected songs from their individual repertoires with accompanying details, descriptions and explanations on how and why they were written.
This is a chance to see "behind the scenes" of the songwriters' methods as well as the opportunity to see and hear three exciting and unique singer-songwriters up close and personal.
Katie Nicholas is an award-winning singer songwriter from Liverpool. After a long musical hiatus she steps into a new musical era with her latest EP "Feather" showcasing her as a distinctive folk artist, skilful guitarist and fearless in bending any genre to suit her message. With her poetic lyricism and carefully crafted guitar arrangements accompanied with strings and keys, her sound is reminiscent of obscure but timeless artists including Kate Rusby, Katie Melua, Eva Cassidy and Joni Mitchell.
Singer-songwriter Anna Corcoran, originally from Formby Merseyside, graduated from Goldsmiths college in 2005, with a Bachelor of Music degree. She is currently studying for her MA Voice Pedagogy: Professional Practice with Voice Workshop University of Wales, Trinity St David. Alongside her own performances, Anna is a highly experienced vocal coach, choir director and arranger, specialising in pop and jazz vocals. Her choral arrangements of popular classics have been performed nationwide by children's choirs in theatres and concert halls including Queen Elisabeth Hall, Royal Festival Hall and The Sage Gateshead.
It was the start of 2020 when Robert Vincent's third LP, the critically-acclaimed "In This Town You're Owned", was released by Thirty Tigers and walked straight into a worldwide pandemic. It was Vincents powerful and soulful voice that attracted acolytes such as Bob Harris, Paul Carrack and Mary Chapin Carpenter. In 2016, Harris awarded Robert with his Emerging Artist of the year award at the inaugural UK Americana Awards show describing Vincent as "absolutely magnetic" and "the real deal".
