SUMMARY:Rescheduled 10 February: Peter Knight & John Spiers
DESCRIPTION:Rescheduled after a covid postponement in 2022\, Calstock Arts are pleased that Peter & John will be back at the Old Chapel in February 2024. \n“There can be no doubt that both performers are amongst the most\, if not the most\, talented of their peers. I was probably not the only person to leave the venue in awe at having witnessed something very special” Fatea Magazine \n“Peter Knight and John Spiers are a very special duo. They are both master musicians\, each with a long and distinguished history\, but there’s a special chemistry when they get together. Ancient tunes are transformed by their ability to improvise and constantly surprise\, and no two performances are ever the same”  Robin Denselow \nOn a summer’s day in 2016\, the organisers of FolkEast Festival masterminded one of the most intriguing and exciting collaborations on today’s folk scene. Peter Knight\, legendary violinist and ex-member of folk-rock band Steeleye Span was paired with leading melodeon player and ex-Bellowhead member\, John Spiers\, for a special one-off performance which left audiences in awe. With no space to be found in the marquee\, people stood five deep in the pouring rain in order to witness the bringing together of two of the most genuinely gifted musicians in their respective fields. \nWith a standing ovation and roars for more\, and much to the delight of folk fans everywhere\, Knight and Spiers decided not to leave things there. \nThe pairing of violin and melodeon is not a new one\, but in the hands of Knight and Spiers\, Improvisation and invention meet the listener at every turn. Together they have created a musical document that resonates with history\, but also something that should inspire future generations of musicians to engage with Britain’s folk dancing heritage\, and the beautiful\, mysterious tunes that can be found within that heritage. \nThese uniquely gifted musicians make a sublime pairing\, and create a live performance to be remembered for a long time. \nThis tour heralds the launch of their long awaited second studio album\, Both in a Tune. \n

SUMMARY:3 February: My Darling Clementine (see competition below)
DESCRIPTION:A labour of love on multiple levels\, My Darling Clementine – the sobriquet of spouses Michael Weston King and Lou Dalgleish – began as a homage to classic country duets of the 60’s and 70’s á la George & Tammy and Johnny & June. Their latest album is called “Country Darkness” – a collaboration with keyboard genius Steve Nieve (The Attractions / The Imposters)\, which sees them reinterpreting the country songs of Elvis Costello.  \nReleased in November 2020 it charted in both the UK and European Americana charts receiving unanimous praise along the way \nDuring the past 9 years they have played over 800 shows around the world\,  won numerous awards and have more than earned their own bona fides\, with their wry yet heart-on-sleeve song-craft spotlighting the vagaries of romance and the human condition\,  and their match-made-in-heaven harmonies \n “King and Dalgleish have earned their place in the role call of great country duettists” – UNCUT  \n “MDC mix country gloom with excellent musicianship and very fine songs.” The Guardian \n “King and Dalgleish have re-invented the country duet” – The mingling of these two voices is just heavenly”  Mojo \n “One of the most exquisitely pained country albums of the year comes from England” New York Daily News \nTheir career started with the 2011 debut “How Do You Plead?”\, produced by Neil Brockbank (Nick Lowe)and featuring some of London’s finest musicians from the 70’s pub rock era. \nReleased in 2011\, it was immediately acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic. Country Music People called it; “The greatest British country record ever made” \nSuch praise led to a US record deal and invitations to appear at the Americana Music Association in Nashville and SXSW in Austin in 2013 \nThe follow-up\, “The Reconciliation\,” produced by Colin Elliot (Richard Hawley) and featuring guest appearances from Kinky Freidman and The Brodsky Quartet only enhanced the bands growing reputation and received a similar critical response with the New York Daily News choosing it as ‘album of the month’ while Popmatters put it in their Top 10 Country Albums of 2013. \nTheir next move was a slight departure as they the collaborated with best selling crime writer\, and avowed country music fan\, Mark Billingham on the story and song project The Other Half. \nBillingham wrote a dark\, nourish tale of murder\, lust and revenge around eight of King & Dalgleish songs. The Other Half became an album\, an audio book\, and a stage show and featured contributions from actor David Morrisey and singer songwriter Graham Parker \nAfter 18 months of touring The Other Half\, including a run at The Edinburgh Festival  Michael and Lou returned to the studio for album no. 4. \nRe-uniting with producer Neil Brockbank\,  Still Testifying was released in the summer 2017. Stylistically\, it was a further shifting away from classic country to embrace gospel and country soul and was widely acclaimed with many writers praising the new direction; \n“Where gospel\, country and Southern soul happily collide. It’s terrific.” UnCut\,   ‘this more Delaney & Bonnie than George & Tammy’ Record Collector     \nListen to them here: https://youtu.be/yFP6X5FKUw4?si=UdGxqSnPBK49MAO1 \nCOMPETITION – all advance ticket holders included in a draw to win one of two copies of the ‘How Do You Plead?’ album.

SUMMARY:19 January: Gallery Bar Special- Jazz Shed
DESCRIPTION:Formed in 2022\, Jazz Shed is a 4-piece band based in the Looe area of Cornwall. They play a wide range of Jazz standards and lively Latin rhythms\, adding some of their own compositions into the mix – all guaranteed to put a smile on your face and get those toes tapping! They have performed at numerous venues throughout south east Cornwall\, including more recently the Old Library at Bodmin\, Polperro music festival and Looe Weekender festival\, gaining a loyal following as they go. \nBoth Helen and Judy are classically trained musicians and were Heads of Music at Looe Academy and Liskeard Community College respectively\, inspiring numerous generations of students to play music.  Having not seen each other for a while\, they met a few years ago when they had both decided to leave teaching and become freelance musicians. A chance meeting at a jazz gig ended up with them on stage together\, and an idea was born! \nAs well as playing double bass\, piano and flute\, Judy has built a reputation as a composer in a wide range of genres. Her orchestral piece ‘Eclipse’\, commissioned by the Plymouth Symphony Orchestra for the 1999 Total Eclipse\, will be performed again by the PSO at the Tavistock Festival in April. \nDuring the pandemic\,  Helen decided to pursue a long held dream of unravelling the mysteries of jazz. Making the most of lockdown\, she studied with Nora Germain (jazz violin) from Los Angeles\, Helen Porter (vocals) from Calstock\, Trudy Kerr (vocals) from London and Anita Wardell (vocals) from Perth\, Australia. As well as Jazz Shed\, she leads the Helen White Quartet. She is also a composer\, and is currently working on her first jazz album\, due to be recorded in early 2024. \nJethro just happens to live 3 doors down from Helen and made a similar decision as an already accomplished guitarist and bass player to follow the jazz trail! After impressing the ladies with his astonishing guitar playing he was invited to join the quartet. \nBunny\, the rhythm man of the quartet\, is well known in these parts as an experienced drummer and percussionist\, playing in various ensembles in and around Cornwall \n  \nJethro Pooley – Guitar \nBunny Warren- Cajon/Percussion \nJudy Whitlock – Vocals/Double Bass \nHelen White – Vocals/Soprano Saxophone/Violin

SUMMARY:16 December: The Wilderness Yet - The Festive / Mid Winter Tour!
DESCRIPTION:Nationally acclaimed folk trio The Wilderness Yet have established a growing reputation for their detailed arrangements and flawless close–knit harmony singing. They are bringing their Festive / Mid Winter tour to the Old Chapel to cheer up our winter blues. \nThe trio combines the clear\, charismatic vocals of former BBC Young Folk Award finalist Rosie Hodgson with the fine\, sensitive fiddling of Rowan Piggott and the deft guitar and flute playing of Philippe Barnes. Independently\, they have earned audiences’ esteem as consummate musicians; together\, they weave an eclectic tapestry of traditional and original songs and tunes\, from a cappella three–part harmonies to luscious instrumentalarrangements. \nThe band’s eponymous debut album was released in 2020 to critical acclaim\, and was closely followed by John O Dreams\, an EP of commissioned covers. Their latest studio album\, What Holds The World Together\, was released in July 2022\, with airplay on BBC Radio 2\, 3 and 6 and an entry in the Official Folk Albums Chart Top 40. \nLockdown saw the trio record Turn The Year Round\, a seasonal album featuring winter songs\, wassails\, and secular rewrites of classic carols. The album has quickly become a favourite\, with the band playing live on BBC Radio 3 on Christmas Day. Now\, it’s time for their first festive tour\, so come and help them deck the halls as they continue the age–old tradition of singing together at the turn of the year. \n“Beautiful musicianship & singing” – Ruth Smith\, RTÉ Radio 1“Simply exquisite” – Tom Robinson\, BBC Radio 6 Music \nFor more information see : – \nthewildernessyet.comfacebook.com/thewildernessyettwitter.com/wildernessyetinstagram.com/thewildernessyethttps://www.youtube.com/@TheWildernessYet

SUMMARY:8 December: Dale Storr Christmas Show
DESCRIPTION:What better way to kick-off the festive season than welcoming back one of Calstock Arts’ favourites. Described as “the piano man’s piano man” and “a national treasure” (Jazz Journal magazine)\, Dale’s musical journey has brought him recognition as the UK’s leading exponent of New Orleans-style boogie woogie and blues piano. Get ready for an emotional rollercoaster ride of the music and tales of the great New Orleans piano players\, inter-laced with some familiar Christmassy tunes given the New Orleans ‘treatment’. \nInspired by his parents’ collection of early Rhythm n’ Blues and Rock n’ Roll records\, the evocative music of New Orleans quickly became a passion for the young pianist\, immersing himself in the styles of such luminaries as Dr. John\, James Booker\, Professor Longhair and Fats Domino. Later\, while studying piano in Sheffield\, he established himself as a highly sought-after pianist backing many top blues stars from the U.K. and America. “A very\, very fine piano player indeed.” (Paul Jones\, musician & Radio 2 presenter). \n“Incredible\, never seen anybody play like that\, only James Booker.” \n(British Blues Legend – Victor Box) \nSince going solo in 2008 and presenting his now acclaimed ‘Sounds of New Orleans’ show\, Dale has wowed audiences across the UK and Europe\, mostly recently at Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club\, with intoxicating piano mastery and vocals\, as well as sharing his encyclopaedic knowledge of the ‘Crescent City’.  Dale draws in the audience with the rich history behind the music\, telling the often risqué stories of his beloved piano heroes. \n“If there is a better New Orleans-style pianist in the UK than the outrageously talented Dale Storr\, please point me in his or her direction because he or she must be very\, very special.” (Blues In Britain) \nHaven’t heard Dale play before? https://youtu.be/OW3st6887m0

SUMMARY:30 November: Guy Singh-Watson (Riverford) @ 1930
DESCRIPTION:Self-confessed veg nerd\, Guy Singh-Watson has over the last 30 years taken Riverford from one man and a wheelbarrow delivering homegrown organic veg to friends\, to a national veg box scheme delivering to around 50\,000 customers a week. Guy will talk to us about ‘35 Years of Trying to be Useful – whatever that means for a farmer\, cook and parent in 2023” \nGuy is an inspirational\, passionate\, opinionated and admired figure in the world of organic farming\, who still spends more time in the fields than in the boardroom. Twice awarded BBC Radio 4 Farmer of the Year\, Guy is passionate about sharing with others the organic farming and business knowledge he has accumulated over the last three decades. His video rants have provided a powerful platform to do this\, with a video on pesticides going viral on Facebook to reach 5.6 million views and 91\,000 shares. His weekly veg box newsletters connect customers to the farm with refreshingly honest accounts of the trials and tribulations of producing organic food\, and the occasional rant about farming\, ethical and business issues he feels strongly about. \nGuy has always believed that organic food should not be elitist\, but accessible for everyone. He has built Riverford to give a fair deal to all – growers\, staff\, customers and the planet. All of this was recognised in 2015 when Riverford veg boxes were awarded Ethical Product of the Decade at the Observer Ethical Awards \n

SUMMARY:24 November: Angeline Morrison with support from Kezia Warwood
DESCRIPTION:Angeline Morrison is a singer\, multi-instrumentalist and songwriter who explores traditional song with a deep love\, respect and curiosity. She is supported by Kezia Warwood. \nAngeline mostly makes music in the genres of wyrd folk and psych folk\, her work infused with elements of soul music\, literature\, ‘60s beat pop sounds\, folklore\, myth and the supernatural. In July 2022\, Angeline was announced as the fourth winner of the prestigious Christian Raphael Prize at Cambridge Folk Festival\, which generously supports the development of emerging talent in the folk genre. \nThe Sorrow Songs: Folk Songs of Black British Experience (released October 2022\, Topic Records) is a work of re-storying. The historic Black presence in the UK dates back to at least Roman times\, yet is often hidden\, forgotten or unacknowledged. \nThe populations of enslaved African people and their descendants in the USA have their bodies of folk song\, which are vitally important for containing histories\, expressing feelings\, giving voice and claiming presence… but the Black ancestors of the UK have no equivalent body of song. The Sorrow Songs begins to address this. \nIt is a gift to the forgotten Black ancestors of these islands\, and to the folk community here today. The album uses history and imagination to tell stories of UK Black ancestors in the sonic style of UK traditional and folk music \nAngeline’s debut for Topic Records\, it has been described as “a gift and landmark folk album\,” by Folkradio.co.uk. \n“Angeline Morrison paves the way and offers an authentic\, brave folk voice of black British experience. In doing so\, she presents us with a collection of songs that feel incredibly overdue. Long may they be sung out and loud.” – Tradfolk.co \nWatch her performance on Later with Jools Holland here: \nRead her Guardian interview here:

SUMMARY:9 November: Martin Rowson - Giving the Gift of Offence
DESCRIPTION:Martin Rowson is a multi-award-winning political cartoonist\, author\, ranter\, illustrator\, broadcaster and poet who’s been assailing the world of politics and the news with his thought-provoking images for 40 years. \nMartin was last at Calstock Arts with his Cartoon History of Brexit in October 2019. He returns to the Old Chapel with his new show “Giving the Gift of Offence“\, where Martin takes us through 40 years of British Politics\, with both his personal and his cartoon responses to the individuals he has met: including the perennial challenges of having to work out how to draw the “fresh meat” of each new Prime Minister\, alongside the cavalcade of events we’ve all witnessed and he’s depicted. \nRefreshingly indiscreet in revealing the people beneath the pomp and spin (as well as spilling the beans on the true nature of journalism)\, this new show will be fully illustrated.

SUMMARY:22 October WARD KNUTUR TOWNES
DESCRIPTION:Ward Knutur Townes found their sound when the world fell silent. In 2020\, these three singer-songwriters\, (Lucy Ward\, Svavar Knutur and Adyn Townes) were selected to take part in a virtual global music sharing experiment called Global Music Match. Teamed up together\, they spent several lockdowns turning their stories into soft harmonies and intricate melodies. This year\, they cashed in their stagnant travel points and recorded their debut album in Iceland. It will be released in October 2023 and accompanied by an extensive UK tour.  \nThe album is an evocative and seamless blend of these three critically acclaimed artists signature styles; it is heartfelt and powerful\, with songs that take in the breadth of the human condition. It is an album that masterfully explores love\, mystery\, folklore and longing\, each track united by having great story telling at its heart. \nOn stage\, the rapport between Ward Knutur Townes is effervescent. Each one of them is skilled in holding an audience alone\, so there is an utter magic to watching their joyful\, authentic camaraderie unfold. Audiences are welcomed as friends and leave a WKT show having laughed and cried; feeling truly uplifted by their epic stage presence and\, undoubtedly\, moved by their music. \nLucy Ward (Derbyshire\, UK) is an acclaimed singer-songwriter and powerhouse performer with a unique ability to inhabit the heart of each song she sings. A BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winner\, her songs are a mixture of evocative imagery\, quiet beauty\, passion\, protest and tradition all rolled into one. \nSvavar Knutur (Iceland) is a gentle but coarse and decadent troubadour. His roots lie in the eastern and northern fjords of Iceland\, known for their respective melancholic poetry and rugged gruffness. Knutur is a humorous storyteller and avid diver into the murky waters of the human condition\, always seeking a mixture of art\, philosophy and entertainment. \nAdyn Townes (New Brunswick\, Canada) is an award-winning alternative folk artist who uses self-deprecating banter and heartfelt lyrics to disarm any audience. A five times International Songwriting Competition finalist\, Townes’ unique voice and honest songwriting set the stage for a show that is high energy yet intimate\, beautiful yet clever. \n\n\n\n\nwardknuturtownes.com \n\n\n\nListen to them here
