Coming up this month, we're back at The Exchange 1856 for not one but two shows next weekend. Set in the heart of North Shields’ Cultural Quarter, this venue is a firm Lindisfarne favourite. Catch us there Saturday 14 February (Valentine’s Day date, anyone?): www.theexchange1856.com/event-detail...

How lucky are we, to have such talented people take our photo? It’s been another brilliant year for Lindisfarne. We’ve performed everywhere from Bridport to Bangor; we’ve sold out well over half of our shows and played some wonderful new venues, too 👇🏻

Farewell to Chris Rea, a class act, photographed in Redcar in 1974 promoting his debut single (and his father's ice cream cafe). Four years later he joined Lindisfarne on tour as our support, opening shows before he was propelled to stardom. There's a little less magic in the air without him here.

Less than 20 tickets remaining for our performance at O2 City Hall Newcastle, Sat 20 December: www.academymusicgroup.com/o2cityhallne... Don't delay – almost half a century on from Lindisfarne's first ever Christmas concert at City Hall, this show remains one of our most anticipated of the year 🎅

Scarecrow Song, the final track from Lindisfarne's 1970 debut album, performed at the Pontio in Banger earlier this month. Our next NINE gigs are now *sold out*, with limited tickets remaining for our show at the Lemon Tree in Aberdeen on 14 December: www.aberdeenperformingarts.com/whats-on/lin...

Our first post here and it feels fitting that it's in honour of two of the all-time greats: our Geordie Genius Alan Hull, who we lost on 17 November 1995, and the inimitable Rod Clements, who celebrates his birthday today. Cheers to you 🤍 © Alan Hull by Barrie Wentzell / Rod Clements by James Hind
