The act
Dinner is the wedding moment for Gwyn Ashton, when guests can listen to the songs, stories and exchanges happening in front of them. The show combines his own music with cover versions he has chosen, giving the evening both a personal thread and selected material from elsewhere. Storytelling and audience participation are part of the performance, so this is more than a sequence of songs set beside the meal. A career spanning 45 years has taken him through more than 32 countries, performing to thousands of people each year. From restaurants and folk clubs to theatres and Wembley Arena, that history suits a couple who want their guests to pay attention.

Good to know
What to expect
Mostly Gwyn's own music, with a few covers he's picked rather than ones he feels obliged to play. But it isn't just a run of songs. He talks between them, tells stories from 45 years of touring, and gets the room talking back. That career has taken him through 32 countries and into rooms of every size, from folk clubs and restaurants up to Wembley Arena, and the show is calibrated for people who came to listen rather than people who came to dance. He works solo or as a duo.
On the day
Power, and a covered stage area around five metres wide. Somewhere to put a merch table. Plenty of fresh drinking water on hand, and a vegetarian meal if the catering can stretch to it. The other thing he asks for is a crowd that actually listens, so think about where the show sits in your running order.
