Blackheart

Sunday 7th September 2008 : 7.30pm

Enjoy an evening with the rising stars of British contemporary folk. The fast-rising boy/girl acoustic duo Blackheart are well known on the British folk scene, having performed with luminaries such as Martin Carthy, Julie Felix, Brian Kennedy, The Strawbs and US legends Steve Forbert, Nanci Griffith and George Jones.

A unique crossbreed of folk, country and rock, their songwriting defies category to create a unique style of beautifully crafted, instantly memorable songs, while their stage show combines amazing musicianship with hilarious audience interaction as they tell the fascinating true stories behind their songs.

Powerful melodies driven by smartly crafted lyrics that talk of love, marriage, life, death, suicide and just about everything in between - Blackheart are all this plus sublime voices, jaw-dropping guitar wizardry and two wicked senses of humour.

The Poozies

Friday 12th September 2008 : 8.00pm

The POOZIES began in 1990 and over the years they have established themselves as the ‘women’s folk super group’. They are masters of arranging and both their instrumental sets and their songs may take you on a journey through a landscape of musical fantasy. Perhaps even more spine-tingling are the close vocal harmonies which intensify the songs and which are drawn not only from the rich vein of traditional Scottish Gaelic culture but from any enticing genre. The success of the POOZIES is evidenced by their continued popularity with audiences. They play to packed houses wherever they go and they are constantly in demand at festivals throughout the summer months.
