The third in this gig series, showcasing two folk bands presenting modern takes on traditional music.

We are thrilled to welcome The Crossroads back to Cecil Sharp House for a third year. The Crossroads is a series of gigs, curated by National Youth Folk Ensemble alumni Elye Cuthbertson and Barney Marshall, that platforms exciting emerging folk artists.

Line-up:

15

Tightrope Moon cast a silver web over their audiences as strings, vocals and electronics entwine in celestial sounds and hypnotic melodies. From gronky re-imaginings of English, Swedish and American tunes to delicate compositions and ethereal improvisations, Cori Smith and Seth Bye's spiraling melodies feel like secrets whispered in the dark.

The duo’s electrifying groove-based tunes create a sound that is otherworldly, yet deeply rooted in tradition. Their songs spin out stories old and new, as haunting vocal harmonies floating over delicate pizzicato latticework. Tales of the forest merge with daydreams in the big city as they infuse acoustic instruments with eerie experimental electronics.

14

Lutra are a three-part folk band comprised of Alice Robinson, Martha Khan, and Sam Jordan. They all met at Halsway Manor in 2018, and have been playing together ever since. Expect exciting and thoughtful arrangements for fiddle, flute, guitar, and voice.

Doors open at 7pm; gig starts at 7.30pm.

Presented by Folk England.

This ticket price includes a 75p building levy.
