Steve Wickham from The Waterboys and Ray Coen will be performing for Grayshott Folk Club at Grayshott Village Hall on May 10 at 7.30pm.

Steve and Ray's first visit to Grayshott in November 2022 took several years in the planning but the wait was more than worth it, as Steve and Ray played to a spellbound full house.

But as they live in the far west of Ireland it is essential they have plenty of work here in order to make their occasional visits worthwhile - so the club has had to wait.

Steve is a masterful fiddle player who has performed with the very best in music, including Bob Dylan, U2, Sinead O'Connor and, of course, The Waterboys.            

Steve is still playing and promoting his own tunes and songs and is currently working towards his third solo album. During lockdown he recorded the optimistic and beautiful song All Will Be Well.

Ray Coen, a singer-songwriter and guitarist from Sligo, has been a band mate of Steve's for many years in their occasional international band NoCrows.
