SUMMARY:Folk Night at the Sunningwell Festival – Fire & Dust: A Woody Guthrie Story  Reg Meuross & The Strike   Duo – with Phil Beer
DESCRIPTION:Under cover in the giant Tipi  – another folk night!\nThe Sunningwell Festival is delighted to welcome back Reg Meuross and this time as a duo with Phil Beer!\nCommissioned and produced by Pete Townshend and created by award-winning singer-songwriter Reg Meuross, Fire & Dust: a Woody Guthrie Story has fast become one of the most powerful and acclaimed folk productions on today’s circuit. Townshend describes it as “folk music at its best,” praising Reg’s “terrific songs” which tell Guthrie’s life story “with respect, affection and truth.”\nFor this performance, Reg is joined by Phil Beer, master musician, multi-instrumentalist, and one of the most respected figures in British folk. Known for his distinctive fiddle, guitar and mandolin playing, Phil brings depth, warmth and exceptional musicality to The Strike, the touring band named for the collective spirit and resilience at the heart of Guthrie’s work.\nThrough songs and narrative, Fire & Dust traces Guthrie’s fight against racism, corruption and inequality, drawing poignant parallels with the world we face today. The performance blends Reg’s masterful songwriting with Guthrie’s enduring legacy: intimate, politically resonant, and deeply moving.\n“What an absolute pleasure to hear Reg’s songs alongside some of Woody’s originals… his outstanding Woody Guthrie project Fire & Dust… this album deserves attention and plaudits. Joyful.” Ralph McTell\n“A stunning tribute from one great folk artist to another.” Morning Star\n“A true homage… beautiful lyrics sharing social history that is still highly relevant today.” RnR Magazine ★★★★\nAn unforgettable evening of music, storytelling and social history.\n
