Danny Schmidt live at the Sessions
Sunday May 12th
Doors at 6.00.
Performing alone with his beautiful voice and delicate guitar playing, singer/songwriter Danny Schmidt will be playing live at The Whitstable Sessions on May 12th. Based in Austin Texas, Danny was named in the Chicago Tribune's list of the "50 Most Significant Songwriters in the Last 50 Years.’ He has amassed a cult following for his poetic, poignant lyrics. With a craftsmanship and emotional depth drawing comparisons to Leonard Cohen and Townes Van Zandt, Schmidt is considered a preeminent writer. Sing Out Magazine proclaimed that: "Schmidt is a force of nature: a blue moon, a hundred-year flood, an avalanche of a singer-songwriter. His songs are a flood of poetry, mythology, folk wisdom, and surprise. He is perhaps the best new songwriter we've heard in the last 15 years."

The Orchestra That Fell To Earth
Five original members of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra perform the beautiful and incredible music they created with Simon Jeffes and the Orchestra.
The Penguin Café Orchestra first appeared in 1976 and subsequently performed and recorded extensively throughout the 1980s and '90s. Pieces such as ‘Music for a Found Harmonium’ and ‘Telephone and Rubber Band’ became well-known through their use in film soundtracks and advertisements. Sadly the band's founder, Simon Jeffes, died in 1997. For ten years the band played only privately, but returned in 2007 for three sold out concerts at the Union Chapel in London. The Orchestra That Fell To Earth comprising a core group of original members, came together after those concerts, and continue to play in the same spirit. Geoffrey Richardson, Jennifer Maidman, Steve Fletcher and Annie Whitehead, all recorded and toured extensively for many years in the original Penguins. Percussionist Liam
Genockey, long standing member of Steeleye Span, also performed with the original band.
