Reg Meuross
A true modern troubadour illuminating history and humanity through song
‘The remarkable singer-songwriter that is Reg Meuross’ – BBC Radio 3
Award-winning Reg Meuross is a vital voice whose storytelling and social commentary remind us of our shared humanity. “I’ve always made up my own itinerary,” he admits, a philosophy that has guided a five-decade career encompassing 17 albums. What continues to drive him on is a profound sense of compassion and a desire to tell people’s stories.
Whether performing in a pub, folk club, festival, theatre or The Albert Hall, Reg always creates an intimacy that can move audiences to laughter and tears within a single song. “Whatever you’re singing about,” he says, “there has to be beauty and humanity.”
Masterfully accompanying himself on guitar, harmonica, tenor guitar, banjo, and dulcimer, a Reg Meuross performance is a journey into the heart, soul, and conscience of English folk.
