TICKETS have gone on sale for the much anticipated return of singer-songwriter Chris Bannister, who plays the music of John Denver at Minster Church, Boscastle on Saturday, August 27.

Since starting touring with his solo show in 2010, Chris’ uncanny ability to recreate the sound of Denver has brought him widespread acclaim.

Such has been his success; Chris now has an international reputation and regularly performs in Aspen Colorado to sell out audiences.

Chris has worked alongside Wrecking Crew saxophonist and flautist Jim Horn who was the longest serving musician in Denver’s band.

Chris also worked with John Denver’s legendary lead guitar player Steve Weisberg, who played on hits like ‘Annie’s Song’ ‘Back Home Again’ and ‘Grandma’s Feather Bed’. Steve sadly passed away last year and, in recognition of Chris’ exceptional talent and for his work in honouring the music of John Denver, Steve bequeathed his 1937 Epiphone guitar to Chris in his will.
