The Best of Country Music
Get ready for a fantastic night of live music, energy, and true country spirit at the Empress Ballroom on Saturday 5th December 🤠✨

Join us for an unforgettable Country Music Show starring the incredible Darren Knight and the talented Carolann B. — two outstanding performers bringing decades of experience and passion to the stage.

With over 40 years of performing experience and around 20 years in country music, Darren Knight is a true entertainer. Known for his powerful vocals (with an impressive 4-octave range) and musical versatility, Darren also plays guitar on stage and is classically trained on piano. Music runs in the family too — his father, who inspired him from a young age, performs as his lead guitarist. Darren has shared moments with legendary names including Ricky Nelson, The Everly Brothers, The Jordanaires, Bobby Vee and Del Shannon, and has even achieved two number one country hits.

Joining him is Carolann B., a seasoned country performer with over 30 years of experience. Known for her warm stage presence, unique voice, and ability to connect with any crowd, Carolann delivers a lively mix of classic and modern country favourites. A talented multi-instrumentalist who has released her own music, she brings energy, authenticity, and a real love of country that turns every audience into part of the show.

Together, they promise a night filled with great music, singalong classics, and feel-good vibes, perfect for both country lovers and anyone looking for a brilliant night out.
