Peter Donegan

Award winning songwriter, vocalist, performer and star of The Voice UK - Peter Donegan and his older brother, Anthony proudly present a fantastic and unique evening of Lonnie’s songs and stories about their legendary father, ‘The King of Skiffle’ - Lonnie Donegan. Although remembered as the “King of Skiffle”, Lonnie Donegan drew heavily from American folk and blues music, which had been largely unknown to British audiences at that time. By introducing this music to Britain, he paved the way for the explosion of beat and R&B groups in the 1960s. Expect the unexpected…. Including huge laughs, singing and lots of foot stomping fun. “He sure shocked the neighbours, in a way that would have surely shocked Mary Whitehouse.”  “There’s gonna be some outrageous as well some heartwarming stories.” (Some profanity included)…..We consider this ‘pay-back’ for all the stories he used tell about us!” Laughs Peter Donegan. For audiences of strictly 18+
