MARK Radcliffe and David Boardman will be bringing an evening of music, mirth, and mayhem at St Austell Arts Theatre on Friday, July 25.

Visitors can prepare for a night of entertainment as Mark and David take the stage, bringing their unique blend of music, storytelling, and humour to the theatre.

Mark is a man of many talents - broadcaster, writer, and musician - whose voice has graced BBC National Radio since the early '90s. Currently, he hosts the Radio 2 Folk Show and weekend breakfast on BBC 6Music.

Beyond the airwaves, Mark has authored five bestselling books, including Crossroads – In Search Of The Moments That Changed Music.

His musical ventures are as diverse as his broadcasting career, having been a member of folk-rock bands The Family Mahone and Galleon Blast. He is also one half of the electronic duo UNE and serves as drummer and lyricist for the Americana band Fine Lines.

David is a seasoned singer-songwriter and consummate guitarist. He cut his teeth on the rock circuit with Darktown Jubilee, touring the UK, North America, and Canada. A gifted visual artist, David met Mark in their hometown of Knutsford, where their writing partnership soon paid dividends.

Together, Mark and David offer an act of classic simplicity: two voices, two guitars, original songs, carefully chosen covers, and the occasional rambling anecdote.

Their debut album ‘First Light’ is now followed up by their sophomore release ‘Hearsay and Heresy’ on which they have somehow managed to hit the sweet spot between David wanting to do dozens of takes before carefully selecting the best bits and Mark thinking it was alright the first time.

The duo will also be at Penzance’s Acorn Theatre on July 23.
