SUMMARY:25 November: Lady Maisery
DESCRIPTION:Award-winning vocal trio Lady Maisery are long celebrated for their innovation at the forefront of the English folk scene. \nAll composers and multi-instrumentalists in their own right\, Hazel Askew\, Hannah James and Rowan Rheingans weave together a rich palate of sounds with their unique approach to harmony singing\, intelligent and thoughtful arrangements of both traditional repertoire and original compositions. \nWhether unearthing a feminist twist hidden in a traditional tale\, delivering a poignant anti-war ballad\, or showcasing their immense multi-instrumental talents in original compositions that draw on a myriad of musical influences\, Lady Maisery are skillful explorers of the power\, beauty and vitality of song. \nPerhaps the most striking part of their performances is the magic that happens between them\, a chemistry that can only grow from years of creating music together – when they begin to sing one unanimous voice emerges\, carrying stories of sisterhood\, human suffering and the joy of living and singing in harmony. \nOver the last twelve years\, the trio have released five albums and toured widely\, performing sell-out shows across the UK and Europe. \nTheir next album – due for release in November 2022 – is eagerly awaited by their listeners. \n‘The most exquisite vocal harmony work on the English folk scene’ The Guardian \n‘Lady Maisery are women with ideas\, purpose and urgency…. powerful\, enthralling work’ Songlines * * * * \nListen to Lady Maisery here

SUMMARY:19 November: Janice Burns and Jon Doran
DESCRIPTION:Janice Burns & Jon Doran are an Anglo-Scottish duo who formed in 2017\, after discovering a shared love of traditional music. \nThey find their songs in archives that span the depths of our history; songs that\, regardless of age\, tell vivid stories about the nature of life\, from the ethereal landscapes of ancient ballads to the urban rhythms of work songs. Their compelling storytelling comes alive through tight vocal harmonies and sensitive interplay between mandolin and bouzouki\, with arrangements that balance intricacy with energy. Their dynamic performances are a celebration of their own musical and geographic backgrounds\, embracing the differences that connect them. \nThe duo met whilst studying folk and traditional music at Newcastle University\, spending one year at the University of South-East Norway together. These experiences allowed them to hone their craft whilst expanding their audiences further beyond the UK. After three years of working together and performing in notable venues such as Sage Gateshead and Folklub Newcastle\, they decided to record their debut EP. It was released in September 2020 to overwhelmingly positive feedback. \n“The clarity and blend in their voices and their beautifully honed playing captivated the sell-out audience at Folklub Newcastle to the point that you could hear a pin drop. They have invested fully in their craft and their sound as a duo and the results are breathtaking.”\nKatie Doherty (Katie Doherty and the Navigators) \nListen to Janice and Jon here \nFor more information \njanandjon.co.uk\nfacebook.com/janandjon\ntwitter.com/janiceandjon1\ninstagram.com/janandjonmusic

SUMMARY:4 November: Windjammer
DESCRIPTION:Windjammer are a trio who cast timeless stories in a context of their own making. They blend self-penned songs and instrumentals with original\, genre-bending arrangements of music drawn from the traditions of British folk. Turning unflinchingly from soft\, delicate emphasis to shoulder-rolling grind\, and from light harmonies to prog-infused instrumentalism\, they have a habit of keeping audiences surprised and engaged with ever-changing soundscapes. Their debut album\, ‘Awaken’ (produced by Sean Lakeman)\, showcases and expands this palette in a studio context. \nThe band\, comprised of Jake Sonny Rowlinson\, Jeremy Bunting and Fran Rowney\, formed around the folk and acoustic music scene in Plymouth\, where they maintain a strong local presence. Jake and Fran met in 2014 at folk sessions in Plymouth’s famous Dolphin Inn\, where they became firm friends and developed a short-lived duo. During this time\, Jeremy was performing as a solo act and the three met whilst performing at the same venues around Plymouth. The three rapidly became friends and collaborators\, forming Windjammer in 2015. \nWith an ever-growing fan base and a distinctive\, uncompromisingly original approach to their craft\, the trio are generating real momentum. Windjammer are increasingly performing further afield\, with festival credits including Cambridge Folk Festival\, Latitude and Hartlepool Folk Festival\, whilst continuing to play an active role in the grassroots folk scene of Plymouth\, East Cornwall and South Devon. \n  \nListen to Windjammer Band here

SUMMARY:1 September: SykesMartin
DESCRIPTION:Unquenching Fire Tour 2022\nIn this exciting new collaboration from two of British folk’s finest voices\, Miranda Sykes (Show of Hands) and Hannah Martin (Edgelarks\, GigspannerBig Band) join forces to present a set of songs that take them back to their shared roots. \nHaving played together on numerous occasions\, including in Steve Knightley’s Wake the Union Band and at the Royal Albert Hall\, they knew that they shared an instinctive ear for harmony and skilled instrumental improvisation. A sociable Devon winter evening led to an exchange of songs\, which proved to be so much fun\, they soon arranged another musical get together. Swiftly these became rehearsal sessions\, as a strong new sound emerged. \nMiranda and Hannah have spent many years playing on the British folk scene\, with several appearances at Calstock Arts\, but neither has ever dedicated an entire set to traditional song. Centred around their deep knowledge of roots music\, and a love of harmony singing\, they bring together old songs with new ideas; ancient tales with bass\, fiddle\, and banjo; and two mesmerising storytellers joining voices to create a spine-tingling testimonial to our shared musical heritage.

Tom Robinson and Chris Difford are fans while Stick In The Wheel and The Unthanks look to him as an influence. \nWinner of six BBC Folk Awards\, he’s played with The Royal Shakespeare Company and was a key member of The Imagined Village along with Billy Bragg and Martin Carthy. A wise and soulful craftsman\, his concerts are a cliché-free zone. \n“Chris Wood might be the Ken Loach of songwriting. Very political\, but at the same time full of compassion\, and he grows sharper and more acute with each passing album. The very best we have today\, and we need him more than ever.” – fRoots Magazine

SUMMARY:CANCELLED 20 February: Lau – Unplugged
DESCRIPTION:Apologies\, but LAU have had to cancel the gig on 20 February as members of the band have tested positive for COVID. Our ticket agent\, CRBO\, will be in touch with all tickets holders. \nFor the first time in over a decade\, Lau present an entirely acoustic tour. The pioneering Scottish folk trio has always experimented with sound and form; the results have been complex and thrilling. \nAlready acknowledged as phenomenal live performers\, Lau arrived at a new creative peak with 2019’s Midnight and Closedown. Their 2020 Unplugged concert tour sees traditional music’s most celebrated innovators strip away their banks of electronics\, loops and wild effects. The trio of Kris Drever (guitar\, vocals)\, Martin Green (accordion) and Aidan O’Rourke (fiddle) feel drawn to a more raw and plain-speaking aesthetic. The approach is subtler\, less about spectacle\, more about close listening. In brash and polarised political times\, here is the poetry of real instruments and considerate music making. \n‘Lau is a remarkable band – the most musically adventurous trio in British folk – exquisite and hypnotic\, musicianship at its best’. ★★★★★ The Guardian \n‘This is music of such stunning creativity – one of the most thrilling live bands’. Sunday Herald \nFour-time winners ʻBest Groupʼ at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards

SUMMARY:SOLD OUT 5 February: Steve Knightley – ‘Follow me Down’ Songs from the West
DESCRIPTION:Steve is a multi-award-winning singer-songwriter/musician and founder member of folk/acoustic roots trail-blazers ‘Show of Hands’ described by Peter Gabriel as ‘one of the great English bands’. A constant throughout Steve’s work is his ability to root his songs in time and place\, notably the West Country where he was raised. \nInformed by a love of narrative and English traditional folk music\, Knightley writes historically accurate songs that resonate with contemporary meaning. He has an extraordinary ability to bring the past vividly\, smack bang into the present. It’s a gift that fuels his reputation as an ‘issues’ writer. The seminal ‘Country Life’ earned him the title ‘the gravel voiced spokesman of the rural poor’ and his anti-banking rant ‘Arrogance\, Ignorance and Greed’ picked up the gong for ‘Best Song’ at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. \nSteve has a degree in History and Politics and in 2015 he was presented with an Honorary Doctorate from Plymouth University for his services to geography and music. Steve is also Patron of the Royal Albert Memorial Museum in Exeter and last year he was awarded the title of Honorary Rifleman by the 6th Battalion the Rifles Regiment.
