Booked by Midnight Mango, the move is a calculated step for the seasoned artist. The agency stated “We are proud to be involved in the launch of the fresh chapter in the remarkable career of legendary songwriter Steve Knightley.”

Notably, the tour includes Knightley’s inaugural performances in Scotland and Ireland, expanding the geographical reach of his musical influence. With a reputation for haunting narrative songs and captivating storytelling, fans can anticipate Knightley’s solo career as a powerful and evocative continuation of his influential legacy in Acoustic music.

Steve Knightley, a revered singer-songwriter and co-founder of 'Show of Hands,' is deeply rooted in the English acoustic music scene, drawing inspiration from the West Country. His ability to seamlessly blend traditional folk with contemporary themes is evident in standout compositions like 'Country Life' and 'Arrogance, Ignorance and Greed,' earning him the title of 'The gravel-voiced spokesman of the rural poor.'

Knightley's unique bond with his audience is exemplified through initiatives like the 'grow your own gig' tour, launched in 2014, allowing fans to organize events without financial risk. By 2017, he had published five songbooks and led workshops with collaborators like Billy Bragg and the late Afro Celt’s Simon Emmerson. As a dedicated patron of festivals such as Costa, Shrewsbury, and Sidmouth, Knightley maintains a strong presence in grassroots music.

Event Description

Steve Knightley is a multi-award-winning singer-songwriter and musician, best known as a founding member of the folk/acoustic band “Show of Hands.” He hails from the West Country and is renowned for crafting songs deeply rooted in geographical places, merging historical folk influences with contemporary themes. Notably, his song “Country Life” earned him acclaim as a spokesperson for rural issues.

Knightley actively engages with his audience, involving them in his work by encouraging them to select tracks for albums and organizing “grow your own gig” tours where fans can host his performances in their local communities. He also runs songwriting and performance workshops, occasionally collaborating with artists like Billy Bragg and the late Simon Emmerson from Afro Celt Sound System.

Beyond his music, Knightley serves as a patron for several festivals and arts centres including Shrewsbury Folk Festival and Sidmouth Folk Festival. He has a diverse range of accomplishments, including recording with Mick Jagger, writing songs for films and musicals, and earning accolades like “Tom Robinson’s Songwriter of the 90s” and BBC Folk Awards.

Along with Phil Beer and Miranda Sykes from Show Of Hands, Knightley was presented in 2015 with an Honorary Doctorate from Plymouth University for services to music.
