Maltby: Son of a legend is at The Rock

The son of a legend comes to Maltby tonight (Friday) as Peter Donegan - son of Lonnie - plays live at The Rock.

After receiving his musical edication from his father and a summer school at Sylvia Young’s theatre school in London, Peter joined the Lonnie Donegan Band aged 18, performing as keyboard player with the band and as the opening act before each concert.

Peter spent two years in the band, before playing with Chas & Dave, Billy Bragg, Ralf McTell, Barron Nights, Rick Wakeman, Mark Knopfler, Joe Brown, Roger Daltry, Joe Cocker, Van Morrison, Chris Barber, Bruce Welch and Chris Farlow at the tribute concert at London’s Royal Hall following Lonnie’s death.
