BOB WOOD – CANOPY THEATRE BECCLES Saturday 30th May 2026 7.30 p.m. 

Bob hails from Scotland and lives in London. An engaging solo singer, he’s known also as a nifty finger-style guitarist who performs with an easy-going sense of humour. Adopting a range of open tunings on guitar, he has been described by Steve Tilston as “..one of the deftest pickers and arrangers of songs it has been my pleasure to hear...a real delight.’’

Bob  has made two albums (When the Moon Sits Fat on a Scudding Cloud and After the Swithering) which national folk magazines have called delightful, haunting, reflective and exquisite. Ian McCalman described the first album as “one of my "most played" over the years; surely the greatest reflection of genuine musical appreciation.” He has been busy performing in lots of UK folk clubs this year.

Shackleton Trio at The Canopy Theatre

THE SHACKLETON TRIO – Canopy Theatre, Hungate Church, Beccles   Saturday 16^th May 8.00 p.m.

Captivating songwriting and fiery tunes that combine mandolin, fiddle, guitar and banjo with powerful three part harmonies – that is the unmistakable sound of the Shackleton Trio who bring to life the stories of their native East Anglia and beyond.

One of the hardest working bands on the scene, The Shackleton Trio are gaining significant UK and International exposure, becoming an “in demand” name on the folk circuit.

The Shackleton Trio are Georgia Shackleton (fiddle, vocals), Aaren Bennett (guitar) and Nic Zuppardi (mandolin). Natural talents of the folk tradition, their self-penned material blends seamlessly with their imaginative yet authentic re-workings of traditional folk standards, influenced by British, American and Scandinavian folk traditions, with a regional twist from the group's native East Anglia.

The unique, distinctive songwriting style of Georgia Shackleton, combined with the vibrant instrumental brilliance of Aaren Bennett, Nic Zuppardi and Georgia’s pure and original voice have developed and matured through four critically acclaimed albums The Dog Who Would Not Be Washed, Fen, Farm and Deadly Water, Mousehold and their latest eponymously titled release.

Susue Ungerleider at The Canopy Theatre

SUZIE UNGERLEIDER Canopy Theatre Hungate Church Beccles  Saturday 11^th April 2026 7.30 p.m.

“Superlative scene-setter and story-teller” - Uncut magazine

After 23 years away chasing dreams in Toronto, three-time JUNO nominee Suzie Ungerleider (formerly performing and recording as Oh Susanna) returned home to Vancouver, drawn by its salt air and towering trees. Her latest album, Among the Evergreens, is a deeply personal journey through time, tracing her path from youthful dreams to the wisdom of experience.

“It’s about being like a tree with all those rings around you, the layers of your life telling you who you are and where you've been,” she says. Imagery of the outdoors, of green valleys and trees shedding their leaves, infuses this new collection and it is garnering high praise as one of her best.

Uncut Magazine describes Among the Evergreens as “thoughtful, luminous, expressive” and featured it as Americana Album of the Month for June 2025. Mojo Magazine’s four-star review glowed that these 10 new songs are “as sweet as folk-Americana comes.”
