The Elizabethan Session : comprising "Martin Simpson, Nancy Kerr, Folk by the Oak patron Jim Moray, Bella Hardy, John Smith, Hannah James, Rachel Newton and early music specialist Emily Askew,  The Elizabethan Session came together to create new music that has a resonance and relevance to the era. This ‘who’s who’ of the British folk scene lived and worked together at a rural retreat in Herefordshire from 14th March 2014 and presented their work in concert on 20th March! The Elizabethan Session used material and history, stories, myths, characters and legends relating to the 16th century period and the artists drew inspiration from the role that Hatfield House, home of Folk by the Oak, played in the Queen’s life. Legend has it that Elizabeth was told of her ascension to the throne underneath the large oak tree in the grounds where Folk by the Oak is now held each July. The Elizabethan historian Ian Mortimer, who has appeared extensively on BBC One, Two and Four and BBC Radio, visited the artists to give them additional insight into the era, and his candlelit talk at the beginning of the week was hugely inspirational to the creative process.

Candidate for album of the year without a shadow of a doubt! This album is astonishing!

Kings And Folk: "The KINGS & FOLK sound is a unique blend of full-blooded traditional Scottish fiddling, beautiful classically-influenced piano, haunting Irish whistle and energetic djembe drumming. Innovative arrangements of traditional tunes and heartfelt original music combine to give performances of  unusual variety and striking individuality." Artists' website

Amen!

Lucinda Williams: Grammy-winning Country, blues and folk singer-songwriter, with roots in Arkansas while growing up the daughter of UA-Fayetteville prof Miller Williams , musically adventurous and more motivated by her own perception of artistic perfection than popular acclaim - too country for rock... and too rock for country she has a devoted following nonetheless from followers of both tribes.

Tom Kitching: Spiral Earth Musician of the Year Nominee 2015! Shaped by an increasing and hugely varied raft of influences, English music is evolving faster than ever. This album seeks to define the state of the tradition. What are the new English tunes? What influences them? How do they fit in the continuum of English music? Working with musicians from outside English music, Tom Kitching has pressed the reset button. Defining English music as anything written by an English musician, regardless of style, Interloper sets the English tradition at the heart of a web of traditions across time and territory. Contemporary and broad based, Interloper captures an English tradition that is open to the world, confident, and comfortable with the journey.
