A superb candlelit concert featuring the local area’s
finest songwriters and acoustic bands.
Tunbridge Wells based singer/songwriter Paul
Dunton brings his popular local music showcase to
Salomons Victorian theatre. The show’s ethos is to
provide the audience with an exceptional eclectic
mix of mainstream acoustic/light music with many
different genres and styles on display featuring
local songwriters and bands.
His twice weekly show at The Grey Lady Music
Lounge situated on the Pantiles is regarded as one
of the finest acoustic music evenings in the South
East with the focus concentrated on local soloists
and acoustic bands. Such is the demand to play at
the show, Paul currently has 122 local acts
performing on a regular rotation offering unparallel
variety and the standard of musicianship,
songwriting and vocal talent is first class.
The larger ‘Victorian Theatre’ shows are mainly for
acts that have regularly headlined Paul’s Grey Lady
shows with the idea that the show offers 5-6
headline acts all on one bill.
Paul (vocals & piano) will be performing with his
orchestral band that features Cello, Flute and
Violins and guest acts include Ian Knapp, The
Original Sinners, Hoath and The Violet Jive.
