In June 2025 Gareth will be walking (with a guitar !) from Lindisfarne via St Oswald's Way and The Way of Light Northern Saints Trail - arriving into Durham on the Eve of Midsummer. As he goes, the journey itself will provide inspiration, stories and perspectives for a new collection of songs to be written and recorded in Autumn/ Winter 2025. During the walk he is performing a series of intimate acoustic concerts at atmospheric venues with songs from across his career and particularly those relating to the North East - for example "Lindisfarne" about Eadfrith and the writing of the Lindisfarne Gospels and Heavenfield - written about St Oswald's Church on Hadrian's Wall. Come along and be part of the journey.

Tonight's concert see's Gareth arrive into historic Edmundbyers from Hexham on Journey Day 8 to play at the beautiful St Edmund's Church thought to have been built around 1150. Please note that the concert will last one hour and that there are no toilet facilities in the church building.

If possible please book in advance to help with numbers at the ticket link below - suggested donation £10-£15. Tickets will also be available on the door. Thank you.

'Foot Notes' is a new venture combining songwriting and pilgrimage, seeking to highlight, through music, the history of culture and faith along our ancient highways and byways.
