Suntou Susso, Natalie Holmes, and Sam Brookes

An evening of songs and stories hosted by Blair Dunlop @ Rough Trade Bristol

A gig held at Rough Trade Bristol on Tomorrow. The event starts at 19:30.

Following two memorable nights, Bristol Song Circle returns to Rough Trade Bristol on Wednesday 11 November. In our cosy, seated setting, three songwriters take it in turns to perform their songs and talk about how they came to be. It’s part gig, part interview, and part songwriting get-together; an evening for hearing great songs and getting under their bonnet.

Suntou Susso brings something rather special to the circle. A multi-instrumentalist, singer, and composer from The Gambia, he was born into the Griot tradition, a 700-year-old Mandinka lineage of musicians and storytellers preserving history and culture.
