WINTER WILSON (UK)
Winter Wilson are one of the hardest-working duos on the European folk scene. Pre-pandemic, they had toured Australia, NZ and Canada. In 2018, they toured the UK with folk-rock icons Fairport Convention.
Dave Wilson is recognised as one of the UK’s best contemporary folk songwriters. His songs are sung in folk clubs the world over and covered by such greats as Vin Garbutt. He’s also a fine guitarist, banjo player and singer. Kip Winter “simply has a voice to die for” (Maverick Magazine). She is equally at home singing contemporary folk, traditional Gaelic songs and blues and also plays piano accordion, flute and guitar.
Together, the couple have produced ten albums, blending truly stunning harmonies with subtle, skilful musicianship.
SADIE & JAY (AUS/NZ)
Jay’s intricate finger style guitar and Sadie’s melodic double bass create a vivid soundscape for their passionate song-writing. From lively rag-time blues and comical ditties to compelling epic tales and ballads, this pairing will take you on a rousing musical adventure.
Sadie & Jay have toured across Australia, New Zealand and the UK. Their distinctive music has received outstanding reviews and multiple awards over three original albums.
