SIMON CHESTERFIELD

Saturday 14 December

The Lyric Theatre, 9 Barrack Street, Bridport, DT6 3LX

Doors 7.30pm

Tickets £10.00 available on the door

Co-founder and ever-present member of The Chesterfields, Simon Chesterfield’s first solo album features the results of a year long project re-imagining six of Simons songs as an orchestral performance.

Co-produced by Ben Scott Turner, Rob Ellis (PJ Harvey) and Simon Chesterfield, the album was orchestrated by Charles Harrison.

An ensemble of Wessex musicians were gathered together for the project, several of whom have now signed up for some Simon Chesterfield live adventures, including a launch party for the album on Friday 11th October at the wonderful Lyric Theatre in Bridport, Dorset.

The players on the album are: Joe Atkinson, Matt Barge, Jenny Bliss, Simon Chesterfield, Rob Ellis, Charles Harrison, Emma Kingston, Seiko Nemoto, Nick Squires, Helen Stickland, James Thornton, and Ben Scott Turner.

‘Simon Chesterfield’ will be available on all the usual digital platforms (Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon, Deezer, Tidal etc), and a limited edition of 300 ten inch vinyl albums will be available via Legere Recordings and Bandcamp.

This is a rescheduled event from Friday 11th October – if you have tickets from the original date, they will be valid.
