Friday 25.09.26 - A Night with Shaun Kirk
The Country Cafe is so excited to welcome, all the way from Melbourne, Australia, award winning blues and soul troubadour, Shaun Kirk.
Shaun is recognised for his exceptional gift as a born entertainer. His unique talent has earned him numerous industry accolades, and extensive praise from fellow artists, such as three-time Grammy Award Winner Fantastic Negrito, who has declared his show as "One of the best one-man shows he's ever seen!" Kirk's vocals exude a gritty, soulful depth that seems to transcend far beyond his years, with critics continually acclaiming him as "one of the finest blues voices Australia has ever heard" (Buzz Mag).
Complementing his vocal artistry, Kirk's vintage guitar tones and raw grooves pay tribute to the timeless influences that have shaped his musical journey, resulting in a distinctive sound that is fast becoming his own.
Shaun’s musical journey has taken him to stages all over the world, where he's not only performed but consistently sold out shows, leaving audiences enthralled by his magnetic presence. From iconic festival stages like Bluesfest Byron Bay, where he's become a familiar name, to sharing the billing with legends like Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin, John Mayer, Paolo Nutini, John Butler Trio, and The Teskey Brothers. Moreover, he's also had the honour of opening for household names such as blues maestro Joe Bonamassa, soul sensation Allen Stone, and the indomitable Beth Hart; further solidifying his place in the landscape of contemporary music.
Doors open at 6.00pm and Music starts between 7.15-7.30pm.
We typically run over 21 evenings, however children 14 and over will be welcome on a Saturday night if prior agreed with management, and they are accompanied by a suitable adult. (Bring ID if you’re lucky enough to look under 25)
No groups larger than 6 please. If you are intending to come as a group of 5 or 6, our tables of this size are very limited in number, so we would appreciate you placing your booking as one group so we can plan to try and seat you together.
Your ticket will guarantee you a seat and table in the venue. HOWEVER, location of this seating is first come first served, so please arrive early for your pick of the best tables.
At The Country Café, Ingatestone, Essex, CM4 0AU (Inside Patrick Green Building)
At The Country Café, we are an authentic Southern style Listening Room. This means there is one simple rule : You allow our musicians to set the tone of the room. If it’s upbeat and high tempo, join in! If its intimate and personal then please respect the musician and listen, keeping chatter and noise levels to a minimum. Our musicians are not background noise.
