Kirk Brandon aKoustiK with Sam Sansbury

Kirk Brandon will be joined by Cello player Sam Sansbury, playing songs from The Pack, Theatre Of Hate and Spear Of Destiny. Post-punk legend, most well known for his work with the bands noted above, will be taking his intimate show to The Mission Theatre for one night only. Fully scored by Brandon’s accompanying partner, the show has been met with rave reviews. “Regardless of whichever point of Brandon’s career you favour, these aKoustiK shows have plenty to offer, the delivery whilst intimate, relaxed even, still has gravitas and the ability to shine new light on much of Brandon’s near 40yr catalogue” – Louder Than War “He holds the audience on his every word, and his stage banter is just as effective.” – Mancunian Matters This is a rare opportunity to catch one of the UK’s best singer/songwriters perform acoustic in the centre of Bath.
