Details of Dave Bainbridge & Sally Minnear
Artist / Band
Details
Award winning multi-instrumentalist Dave Bainbridge joins forces with Lord of The Dance vocalist and instrumentalist Sally Minnear to bring a spellbinding evening of music that will, in equal measure have you jigging in (or out of!) your seat or bring a tear to your eye. A compelling mix of powerful and ethereal vocal songs (including the occasional emotive Gaelic ballad) and instrumental tracks, the set will feature jigs, reels, slow airs, evolving soundscapes and virtuoso improvisation on keyboards, electric guitar, bouzouki and cowbell! Dave and Sally first toured together as a duo in July 2015. Such were the incredibly positive reactions to the tour that they have continued work together whenever their busy schedules allow, bringing their magic to audiences far and wide. Their first release together ‘Live in the Studio’ received amazing reviews and audience reactions. Dave is best known co-founder of pioneering Celtic folk/rock/progressive/ambient band IONA and more recently Lifesigns, Celestial Fire, DBA (with Geoff Downes of Yes), and Strawbs, and has worked with Jack Bruce, Troy Donockley, Buddy Guy, Gloria Gaynor, Mae McKenna, Moya Brennan, ‘Snake’ Davis, Paul Jones, Phil Keaggy, Robert Fripp, Nick Beggs, Damian Wilson amongst many others. Sally is the daughter of multi-instrumentalist Kerry Minnear of influential 70s prog band Gentle Giant and has been steeped in music throughout her life. She had a minor hit with the song “For You” aged just 18 before forming the acoustic duo ‘Creatures of Habit’ as a vehicle for her own songs. Sally secured the featured vocalist role in Michael Flatley’s hugely successful dance spectacular ‘Lord of the Dance’ and is also lead vocalist and multi-instrumentalist in Dave’s band Celestial Fire as well as backing vocalist for Pendragon.
