is one of the UK's finest
songwriting talents and accomplished live
performers. This acoustic performance will

As the original guitarist, singer and main
songwriter in the British rock band The
Stranglers, he's enjoyed massive success with
10 hit albums and 21 Top Forty singles, etching
himself into Europe and the USA's musical
psyche with classic songs, including Peaches,
No More Heroes, Golden Brown, Nice N'
Sleazy, Always the Sun and Duchess.
Cornwell's last studio album Totem & Taboo
