WINNER of BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards "Best Live Act" Award 2001
"Powerful, hugely moving, warm, humane, inspired, funny and gut wrenchingly honest. These are just some of the superlatives used to describe Vin's performance this year. This international, award winning, singer songwriter is about to embark on his 40th year on the road. He is for ever in demand and his shows are continually sell outs, so get your tickets early!" |
