Hauntingly atmospheric story-songs for a midwinter’s night.
The Furrow Collective is a much-loved all-star folk quartet with a unique take on traditional music of England, Scotland and beyond. With each member an established songwriter, singer and instrumentalist they have crafted a distinctive blend of haunting vocals and string-based instrumentals.
A decade since their first full-length album, they bring songs from their substantial back catalogue but focus on songs from their most recent album We Know by the Moon, a lunar-themed album of songs set after dark. “The moon, the stars, darkness and night are threads woven through these songs” they say – “songs to be listened to after dark, by candlelight, firelight, or under the steady light of our constant lunar companion.”
Their signature sound – exquisite, keening vocals, rich harmonies, understated instrumental accompaniment – is perfect for these captivating story-songs, drawing us in closer to the songs, traditions and culture of our islands.
The Furrow Collective are Lucy Farrell (viola, voice & saw), Rachel Newton (harp, fiddle, voice), Emily Portman (banjo, concertina, voice) and Alasdair Roberts (guitars, voice). They won 2017 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards ‘Best Group’ and tour extensively throughout the UK as well as in mainland Europe, delighting audiences with their beguiling approach to traditional song.
The performance ends at approx. 9.45pm including an interval.
Seating for this event is arranged as tables at the front of the hall, with tiered seating behind.
