GRATEFUL FRED'S AMERICANA, ROOTS & ACOUSTIC NIGHTS - Grateful Fred's
Description: Charlie Dore is one of the UK's most respected songwriters. Initially a highly original solo artist (her self-written single Pilot Of The Airwaves reached number 13 on the Billboard chart back in 1980), she went on to ply her gifts for inspired melodies, big harmonies and clever, quietly subversive lyrics in the wider marketplace, and with great success: Tina Turner, Celine Dion, George Harrison, Lisa Stansfield, UB40, Jimmy Nail, Sheena Easton and Hayley Westenra are just a handful of the diverse artists

Some concerts are just that - private. But others will make a few extra tickets available in addition to the invited guests, depending on the occasion, size & location of the venue. Each one is different. Just email [email protected] and we’ll let you know. If you’d like to find out a little more about putting on your own private concert either in your own home or in a local hall where you might club together with music-loving friends to share the event, drop us an email and we’ll send you an info sheet
Jane Siberry and Charlie Dore discuss songwriting, curtseying, boys, funerals and a whole lot of other unconnected stuff at The Green Note 14/3/18. This was part of Jane's New Songs series residency when each week she invited a guest songwriter to share a song in progress.
Charlie sits down with Simon and Brian to talk about the writing of her most recent album, Dark Matter. She also talks in detail about her classic hit ‘Pilot of the Airwaves’, working on TV’s Rainbow, co-writing songs like ‘Ain’t No Doubt’ (Jimmy Nail), ‘Rain, Tax (It’s Inevitable)’ (Céline Dion), and ‘Strut’ (Sheena Easton), and her time spent in the company of friends and colleagues like Eric Idle, George Harrison and Harry Nilsson.
