Charlie Landsborough
Charlie and his five-piece band play to sell-out audiences and are well known for keeping concertgoers enthralled with his heartfelt and telling lyrics and his very human anecdotes.

He scored his first hit record with the Irish Chart Topper, ‘What Colour Is The Wind’ in 1994 at the age of 53. Charlie Landsborough’s total album sales currently sit just under 1 million units. www.charlielandsborough.com
Dave has recorded many of his songs in Nashville, working with the very musicians responsible for creating that very distinctive 'Nashville Sound' .
Dave returned to Nashville in September 2005 to start recording the highly acclaimed ’Overworked & Underpaid’ album. Included in this album is the song ‘I wish I had a Bassman like The Jordanaires’ which is a tribute to tremendous contribution made by the group to the music business stretching right back to 1950s - they claim to have backed over 3000 artistes during their career! Three singles from the album (including the above) have reached the Number one position in the British Country Music charts. www.davesheriff.co.uk Henry Smith Band

My most recent album was recorded live in Holland with my Dutch band, Desperado. We had toured together for years, so it was a simple matter to pick fifteen of our most popular songs and record them in front of an audience. The result was better than I dared hope. In many ways, it’s my best album; you can really hear the excitement of a live gig. The band was cooking and the crowd was into it. Even the imperfections in the performance somehow seemed to add to the special quality of the record.
I travel to extraordinary places and make good music with good musicians. The audiences are warm and welcoming; country music seems to attract good people. Someday I may teach more and tour less, but for now, I plan to keep doing the best job in the world www.johnpermenter.com Gary Quinn
