Ralph McTell – Saturday 8 September 2018
Best known for his international hit “Streets of London”, Ralph McTell has been a stalwart of the British acoustic music scene for the last five decades. He has enjoyed a 50 year, 350 song career, which has taken him from street busking across Europe to solo shows at the Royal Albert Hall and the Sydney Opera House.
