Mr. Dalling would like to sing you some songs. Some he will sing unaccompanied, but for most he will use the assistance of his piano accordion.
He has been entertaining audiences for many years as a musician, a clown and as an actor. His main rôle for the last decade has been the kilted fall-guy in the internationally renowned comedy-folk trio The Old Rope String Band; no longer old, he is still the kilted fall-guy, but now he is New.
Although Tim Dalling has worked tirelessly, in his career, to reduce audiences to helpless laughter, over the last few years he has been composing a body of serious songs that encompass a whole range of other emotions. Inspired by the suggestion of a friend, he started turning the moving and lyrical poems of Louis MacNeice into songs. This led to more lyrics and songs of his own, and a commission to turn poems by Sean O'Brien into songs for a Radio 3 play, The Black Path.
Ever committed to live entertainment, he is now searching for venues where he can let his songs come to life in the ears of an audience. The combination of his soulful voice, funky accordion, years of experience entertaining, and a batch of exciting, moving and original songs will make for a good night.
Why not take the plunge?
