“Emily’s performance in our village hall was a delightful intimate experience for all of us who were there.  Songs from the heart – can’t get better than that!   We are already planning to entice her back.”  (Tony Haupt, Thatchcombe B&B, Letcombe Bassett, Oxfordshire)

Emily is following in the footsteps of Steve Knightley (from folk icons Show of Hands) who in 2014 came up with the concept of the ‘Grow Your Own Gig’ series.

Steve asked his fans if any of them wanted to see him play in their local village hall and would be willing to put on a gig.  He had over 500 enquiries and played over 75 gigs, mostly organised by individuals who had never put on a gig in their life but wanted to support live music and their local community. They booked their local village hall, put up posters, spread the word and sold tickets at the door. After the gig Steve shared the profits with the show organiser.

If you think your local community would enjoy seeing Emily play live in their village hall, please get in touch with her direct – email emily[at]emilymaguire.com.
