Richard Thompson
On 2027-05-05, legendary songwriter and guitarist Richard Thompson brings his singular blend of incandescent guitar virtuosity and wry, heartfelt storytelling to Sage Gateshead in Gateshead for a concert that promises to span his storied catalog from Fairport-era gems to compelling recent work. Set in the striking riverside venue, the evening will offer an intimate yet powerful listening experience where crisp acoustic passages, searing electric solos and Thompson’s distinctive vocals cut through the hall with clarity and punch. Audiences can expect riveting musicianship, sly humor between songs and the kind of narrative lyricism that turns each performance into a small drama, making this an unmissable night for long-time fans and newcomers alike. Tickets are on sale now and likely to be in high demand, so early booking is advised to secure a place at this memorable show.
