Once memorably described as sounding like ‘James Taylor meets John Prine in a second hand bookshop’, Anthony Toner is one of Northern Ireland’s leading songwriters and guitarists. This year he celebrates the release of his twelfth album, ‘Emperor’ – a completely acoustic revisiting of some of the finest songs in his back catalogue, including the much-requested ‘Sailortown’ and the sombre and unforgettable ‘Road to Fivemiletown’, among others.
