“From an early gig at the Donkey, onto the The Musician Pub for a truly delightful concert. At the beginning Saskia went on to describe her excellent project about encouraging older songwriters… and first up was someone who came out of that program, a new name to me, Steve Strawhead.
Steve gave us a really great set… he has a lovely light warm voice and accompanies himself with some fine guitar playing. The songs, all Steve’s original compositions, are excellent, and each one very different to the one before. He easily built a really nice rapport with the audience with his warm and entertaining patter and personality. There were signs maybe of nerves at times as he explained if he got a song wrong he would start again from the beginning as long as he hadn’t sung more than 1/3 of the song… he did forget the lyrics in one song and handled it with aplomb, so that it didn’t in any way detract.
A really fine set from a quality songwriter and performer… would love to see more of him” – Rich Wakefield (reviewer)
