Chris Milner Journeyman brings his Midnight Wine show to Ventnor Fringe Festival

At this year’s Ventnor Fringe Festival, well respected singer / songwriter Chris Milner shares songs (contemporary and traditional), wine and stories from almost 50 years in the great British folk scene touring UK and Europe.

He is now thinking ‘maybe he chose the wrong genre’. Come chill out, listen and advise.

“There is a real spirituality in the songs and arrangements.”
Garth Hewitt (musician and activist)

“I enjoy the poetry and folk edge to the style. Through the songs he is able to communicate to a wide variety of people on a number of levels.”
Dave Bilbrough (International musician and author)

“The inspiration for his work is wide ranging and eclectic, and while it is rooted in his own experience of life and his travels, the sheer poetry of his lyrics captures and conveys the universality of love and faith This is not just a recital. It is a show with a vibrant narrative.”
Tony Hayes Tempo fm

“Wherever I lay my hat , that’s my home ; and from the moment Chris Milner – Journeyman popped his hat and coat onto the stand on stage that’s exactly how it felt, being asked to bring some wine definitely helped! Experience counts and Chris never put a foot wrong as he strummed his two guitars and sang his lyrical, sometimes humerous songs on subjects including teenagers, romantic break up, vain successful singers and the deep comfort he has derived from his guitar.”
Buxton Fringe Review 2021

“Aye Lad, Nice take.”
Dave Burland (International folk legend)
