“Folk Singer of the Year” 2015 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards Influential singer-violinist Nancy Kerr plays tracks from her stunning solo debut, Sweet Visitor, backed by a stellar lineup. Already a respected interpreter of traditional material, Nancy’s emergence as a writer of rare style has drawn comparisons to William Blake in her reawakening of a radical folk mythology as a backdrop for contemporary narratives about love and conflict, migration, hardship and jubilation, and the tensions between rural and urban life. Nancy is joined on stage by James Fagan (Cara Dillon, The James Bros, and co-winner with Nancy of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Duo) Tom Wright (Albion band, Park Bench Social Club, Eliza Carthy),Rowan Rheingans (Lady Maisery) and top bassist Tim Yates (Blackbeard’s Tea Party). “Stunning - Five Stars”. R2 “A songwriter steeped in the tradition, but casting it anew.” Songlines “Quite breathtakingly beautiful.” Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2.
