BIG COUNTRY Up Close & Personal - Acoustic
Across the decades of popular music. BIG COUNTRY have one of the most iconic and identifiable sounds. Recent tours have celebrated significant anniversaries of their albums ‘The Crossing’ ‘Steeltown’ (a Number 1) and ‘The Seer’ albums in full-on performances all over the UK, Germany, Australia and New Zealand. Now, this acoustic format allows the opportunity to shine a spotlight their rich heritage of songs, stripped of studio gloss, production values and the massive amplification that drives a full-on, ‘electric’ performance. Delivering these songs acoustically is just another challenge relished even more by this band, who bring passion to every single performance and cherished by their legions of fans.
