| Derrin Nauendorf at The Stables Posted: 01 Oct 2012 04:57 AM PDT  Sunday 2 December, 8.45pm Stage 2 Tickets £10 in advance, £12 on the door To think of Derrin Nauendorf as just a troubadour or another journeyman would not paint the correct picture - he's an acclaimed artist with many fans and an accomplished guitar player as well as a singer-songwriter. Derrin is endorsed by Yamaha Guitars, but to think of Derrin as just a guitar player does not explain his music either - he's a songwriter of the highest order. The past couple of years have seen Derrin busier than ever and he increased in his fan base and touring range. An opportunity to see Derrin perform live should definitely not be missed!

Beth released her new album Sugaring Season (her first since 2006's Comfort Of Strangers) in October and joins us as she tours this new material.
