'Richard Digance is a National Treasure'
Bob Harris, BBC radio presenter
2025 sees Richard Digance still going strong and performing at selected venues as well as spending more time in his studio composing soundtrack music. Richard is a BAFTA nominated entertainer and a recipient of The Gold Award from The British Academy of Composers and Songwriters. He has also won a Sony Award and is one of only three British folk singers mentioned in The Virgin Anthology of Songwriters for his contribution to comedy songwriting.
He has released 43 albums, written 22 books and composed the songs and music for Bill Bryson's best-selling Audio CD book The Road To Little Dribbling. He has worked in America with movie star Steve Martin and recalls two of his greatest moments as playing The London Palladium with Robin Williams and a guitar duet on TV with Queen guitarist Brian May.
Off-stage he composes soundtracks and incidental music for TV and movies plus audio CD books.
