Kathryn Tickell, Superfolkus

An irrepressible force, they don’t just breathe new life into the traditional and contemporary tunes of Northumberland and beyond, they blast them into new and uncharted territory!

These six musicians will blow you away with their fresh new sound. We defy you to keep track of all the various combinations of guitars, mandolins, fiddles, keyboards, percussion, accordion, voice and Northumbrian pipes from this amazing group of multi-instrumentalists.

But watch out - after you’ve been invigorated by the drive, swing and sheer technical virtuosity of the music you may find yourself moved to tears by an evocative slow air, and by the obvious commitment and passion of these young players.
