Roesy



Roesy is always welcomed with open arms when he comes home to tour. Alongside his solo tours, Turning Pirate has collaborated on his Very Round Robin tours which have been a huge favourite contrywide.

Over the past 20 years Roesy as shared the stage with international figures such as Bert Jansch, Ron Sexsmith, Paul Brady, Billy Bragg, John Martyn, Joan Armatrading, Donovan, Shane McGowan and celebrated author Paul Durcan.

His melodies have the presence to seem familiar while remaining distinctly his own; impossible to ignore or dismiss. The deceptive simplicity of his lyrical themes reveal their latent complexities upon repeated listening.
