WEDNESDAY 11th MARCH REG MEUROSS
Award-winning singer-songwriter Reg Meuross, introduced at the Royal Albert Hall by Mike Harding as ‘one of this country’s finest’, is a true modern troubadour and one of the most respected voices in contemporary English folk. With a beautiful tenor voice and a catalogue of songs that span compassion, social justice, history and humanity, he has captivated audiences for decades across the UK, Europe, North America and the Antipodes. Reg’s performances are a masterclass in musical storytelling. Accompanying himself mainly on guitar, with occasional harmonica, tenor guitar, banjo and dulcimer, he draws listeners into the heart and soul of his songs with consistently spellbinding performances.

WEDNESDAY 13th MAY NARTHEN
Narthen are Jo Freya, Fi Fraser, Sarah Matthews and Doug Eunson. They present an orchestra of sound between them via whistles, sax, fiddles, viola, hammer dulcimer, accordion and hurdy-gurdy as well as four magnificent voices. They perform a wide range of tunes and songs from the traditional to modern, expressing the material through vocal harmony and their large variety of instruments. There’s a huge amount of warmth and humour in every show from four people who together create a new sound.
'The strength of the musicianship of all the band’s members is clear. There is great diversity, all performed with confidence and surety. There is humour too.’ (Essex Folk News)
