Anthony Toner @ The Old Courthouse - Oct 2025

Anthony Toner returns to the intimate setting of the Old Courthouse Theatre in Antrim for a solo acoustic show – and with an armful of new songs to celebrate. Released as a brand new album under the working title The Big Seas of their Dreams, these are the first original pieces in almost two years from the Coleraine-born, Belfast-based songwriter. ‘I’ve just emerged from one of the longest dry spells of my career,’ he explains, ‘and surprise, surprise, I’ve returned with yet more songs about relationships, characters, childhood, compassion…’

As always, expect an evening of fine playing, singing, great between-song stories - and a selection of classics from the back catalogue, including ‘The Road to Fivemiletown’, ‘Sailortown’, ‘Well Well Well’ and many more – including some blues, some covers and – these days – the odd rendition of a poem or two, from some of Anthony’s favourite writers.
