Miranda Sykes Behind The Wall Spring Tour Dates

Feb 8, 2020

Miranda Sykes, the acclaimed singer and bassist with ‘Show of Hands’ is returning to her roots. After a career spanning over 20 years, during which time she has played with many of the top musicians and singers within the folk world, she is touring as she started out: one woman, one bass, and one guitar.  Building on the success of her Borrowed Places tour, Miranda Sykes is back with a completely new project: Behind The Wall.

Where Borrowed Places opened a window into the past, explaining where she had been, physically and spiritually, Behind The Wall is a Roller Coaster Ride exploring where we are going and what it means to be human today, living in our communities and societies and where will our actions lead us?

Powerful and hard hitting but also poignant and beautiful, Miranda’s show gives us all a chance to reflect and maybe even empower us.
