Show of Hands perform at Hove House Concerts

Show Of Hands

In a clear break from tradition, we hosted this house concert barely two months after our previous one – and on a Thursday night. But the chance to snaffle this ground-breaking acoustic duo was too good to miss. In front of a house packed with friends old and new, Phil Beer and Steve Knightley raised the roof (thankfully not literally) with their wonderful songs, singing and playing. Great to hear ‘old’ classics like Exiles and Santiago and the new stuff was up to the same high standard. Exceptional. Find out more on the Show of Hands website.
