2024 and Richard Digance has been on the planet for 75 years, on stage for 58 of them. If this BAFTA Nominated entertainer and a recipient of The Gold Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters doesn't have songs to sing or stories to tell then it would be a shock to one and all. 

He has released 45 albums, written 24 books and composed audiobook music and songs for Bill Bryson. He has worked in America with movie star Steve Martin and recalls two of his greatest moments as playing The London Palladium with Robin Williams and a guitar duet on TV with Queen guitarist Brian May.

2024 is a year of concerts at his favourite venues, art exhibitions and the completion of a musical about Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
