INDEPENDENT singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Ray Cooper will be performing at St Leonard's Church in Yarpole on Saturday at 8pm.

Currently living in Sweden, Ray, a former long term member of folk rock group Oysterband, is visiting the UK briefly, as part of his “Love and Vengeance” tour of 2017 that includes this stopover in north Herefordshire.

A singer/songwriter who combines his Scottish heritage with Nordic influences, he includes mandolin, cello, harmonica, organ and bass guitar in his performance of both traditional songs and contemporary stories.

Tickets £10 on the door.
