Sheep Town is Skipton.  It's where the name originated – the focal point of Dales farmers heading to market in ‘Sheep Town’.

Skipton celebrates its heritage every year with a completely unique event in the world - Sheep Day.

This year Sheep Day is on Sunday 30^th June.  It’s a day of celebration with events on the High Street and in Skipton’s picturesque Canal Basin – just yards for where David lives.

His melodies are unforgettable.  the highs and lows are laid bare in ‘Hard Road’.

In this podcast, we listen to David’s music, find out about his influences and his love of Skipton.
