Blues master Doug MacLeod is at the Hope Tavern on Sunday, October 13

Known for his superb guitar wizardry, warm, soulful vocals, wit and unforgettable live performances, Doug has a knack for storytelling, bringing characters to strikingly real life.

As a youth, he overcame abuse and a crippling stutter by turning to music. After he picked up a guitar, and tried to sing - he found his voice.

Like the old masters who taught him, MacLeod’s music expresses life and times via an intangible, elusive quality that may simply be a keen sense of what matters most.

There is a philosophic and healing side to MacLeod’s music and his stories that has helped others overcome the hardships of their lives.

The show starts at 4.30pm, with a limited number of tickets available from the pub at £10.
