About This Event

This intimate setting at The Egg created an atmospheric experience that reflected Visions of Albion's distinctive sound. Admission was priced at £6.00, offering a unique opportunity for music lovers to immerse themselves in this rich blend of musical styles.

“ Visions of Albion have created something direct and utterly beguiling” - Liverpool Sound and Vision

If you were to take the jangliness of the 1960s West Coast, the warmth of the Laurel Canyon troubadours, and the brooding melodies of the English Folk revival; mash it all together, it might sound something like Visions of Albion. Formed in 2018, the two native Liverpudlians pull from a vast array of inspirations to create a sound that is truly authentic and original. The pairing of Sam Shield’s evocative lead vocals with Daniel Ryan’s intricate fingerstyle guitar playing creates a smorgasbord of sound that feels as fresh as it does familiar. Add to that the soaring harmonies and it’s clear to see why they have become such a mainstay of the local music scene. Currently recording their much-anticipated debut album, their unique brand of folk-psychedelia has been described as something that “transports you back to a late 60s daydream”
