CANDACRAIG / Tony Patterson and Doug Melbourne in concert

Candacraig are comprised of Sharon Cannings (vocals, keys, mandolin) and Martin Nicholls (guitar, cello). Originally actors, they have been composing dark, alternative music since 1992. Making the leap to full-time musicians in 2015, they depped for various established tribute acts, from ABBA to 90s Dance anthems. When lockdown shut down their only source of income, they returned to the body of work they had been writing for the last 25 years, added new material, and reworked old songs to create their first album, Thunder of Whispers. Also on the bill Tony Patterson and Doug Melbourne are a musical collaboration, best known for their album "The Divide" and their involvement in the Genesis tribute band ReGenesis. They also have a solo album, "We've Been Expecting You". Their work often explores contemporary issues and features a polished, epic, and powerful sound.
