Tyneside heroes set to bring the house down at Adur’s flagship venue

LINDISFARNE | Friday 3rd November

8pm

Lindisfarne are lighting up Ropetackle’s autumn/winter programme with a sold out concert this November.

The Tyneside folk-rock pioneers first grabbed the attention of the country in 1970 with their debut album Nicely Out of Tune. There followed a string of memorable albums and evergreen classics including Meet Me on the Corner, We Can Swing Together, Fog On The Tyne, Lady Eleanor and Run For Home.

In 2023 and in top form, the band is pleased to return with a series of UK concerts presented by a classic five-piece line up of long-time members, fronted by original founder-member Rod Clements on vocals, mandolin, fiddle and slide guitar. They will recall a memorable period of live shows focussed on the 1977 release of live LP ‘Magic in The Air’. With a repertoire of unforgettable songs and a reputation for live performance second to none, LINDISFARNE’s power to galvanise festival and concert audiences remains undimmed and is guaranteed to get the crowd on its feet and singing along.

Rod said: “Lindisfarne are delighted to be returning to the Ropetackle, which we know from previous visits to be a friendly and wellrun venue with a fabulous audience thrown in! It’s great to know that our music is so much appreciated on the south coast. You’re doing a great job of supporting live entertainment and we’re proud to be part of that – see you in November!”
