Nels Andrews plus support
20th May
Nels’ voice is typically warm and welcoming, as if he’s inviting you in for a moment to hear about his day and has the ability to turn seemingly small stories into epic tales with a wonderfully evocative turn of phrase or a simple but piercing observation.

O’Hooley & Tidow
27th May
The most exciting act on the contemporary folk scene today; Belinda O’Hooley and Heidi Tidow are accomplished interpreters of everything from Massive Attack to traditional Irish ballads, but it’s their own boundless songwriting and exquisite harmonies that truly shine. Their new album The Hum, produced by Mercury nominated Gerry Diver (Sam Lee’s A Ground of its Own) is receiving high praise from Radio 2, 6 Music and the national press. They have the originality and skill to invite comparison with the folk scene’s most celebrated North American harmony duos, from early Simon and Garfunkel to the iconic Kate and Anna McGarrigle. Lyrically and musically, Belinda and Heidi’s powerful, deeply moving, and at times spine-tingling performances are infused with an honesty and empathy that will disarm even the hardest of heart
