Mark Harrison Band

Saturday 18th October

The extraordinary Mark Harrison Band has a unique sound and style that is very much their own genre, and incorporates elements of classic roots, rock, folk and blues. They have been compared to classic artists of the golden era such as The Band and Little Feat. It’s music to make you smile, think and move.
The band features the amazing musicianship of Charles Benfield (double bass/harmonies) and Ben Welburn (drums/percussion), who form a unique and much-admired rhythm section. With his outstanding tunes, wry observations, catchy melodies, striking rhythms and stunning guitar playing, Mark Harrison is widely considered one of the most original and interesting artists around. You won’t hear anything else quite like him.

Mark T

Opening the evening will be Mark T who is no stranger to ACE Space. Originally from Hereford, but now living near Reading, Mark T. has been playing his unique blend of blues, folk and roots music since the mid eighties, solo and in the company of esoteric collaborators The Brickbats, roots rock band Rootdogs, with Charles Spicer (Mellstock Band) and, most recently, with Irish band Bouzouki Bellows! Mark’s set will feature a cross section of the music he has recorded since his 1983 debut ‘What’s It All About?’ mixing Blues, English and Celtic folk music with Greek Rembetika.
