About This Event

Ward will perform a set of original songs, blending folk-tinged melodies with a full band sound that fills the room with warmth. The afternoon promises a relaxed and intimate atmosphere, with the music carrying a gentle, lived-in energy that invites quiet reflection. Entry is free, with a collection taken at the end of the performance to support the artists. This is a rare chance to experience Ward’s evocative songwriting in a setting that encourages unhurried listening, making it an ideal way to spend a Sunday afternoon in the heart of Warwick. The event is open to all, and the simple, unpretentious vibe ensures that both longtime fans and newcomers will feel welcome.
