Reg Meuross @Rachel Snowdon
The breadth and depth of Reg Meuross’s material is unparalleled in contemporary folk: songs about forgotten heroes, famous names, folk legends, the climate emergency, tales from the kitchen sink and newsfrom the world stage; if something needs to be sung about then Reg
Meuross has a song for it. Reg is currently touring songs from his extensive back catalogue alongside Fire and Dust, the narrated song-cycle commissioned by Pete Townshend, which explores the life of Woody Guthrie and shines a light on racism, corruption and inequality.
A new solo album is due this year.
We first saw Reg locally in Coldstream in 2024 and he’s been on our agenda for a booking ever since.
