Mawkin: "Since their
formation in 2002 Mawkin have grown into one of
brit-folks brightest new guns: a blistering 5-piece band fusing folk,
world, jazz, prog and rock, they are no strangers
to the cutting edge of the contemporary music scene while still reigning
all the verve and mystique of ancient folk music traditions from across the
globe.Forged out of the electric partnership of
brothers Jamie and David Delarre, Mawkin are a concoction of brilliantly inventive
musicianship and uninhibited carnal exuberance. Initially coming together
as a 3-piece the Delarre brothers enlisted the
help of good friend and rock bassist Danny Crump. Starting out as a
“bunch of mates” they played to a rapturous crowd at the 2002 Dartmoor Festival and before long Mawkin
were performing at festivals across the country even though 2/3rds of the
band weren’t old enough to drive." - Artists' website
Multiple award-bedecked outfit
with a glorious catalogue of releases to which they have added yet another
jewel... fabulous!
Moirai: "is a meeting of the musical
minds of: Jo Freya (Blowzabella, Token Women,
Fraser Sisters), Sarah Matthews (Cupola, Cupola:Ward) and Melanie Biggs (All Blacked Up). Having
played together many a tune in sessions throughout the country, it was
decided to knit together their various talents by forming Moirai. Moirai means Spinners
of Destiny and performances weave the trios instrumental
talents with haunting vocals. The result: enchanting musical arrangements
delivered with skill and a healthy dollop of humour." - Wildgoose

James Delarre & Saul Rose:
"Forged from the folk melting pot that is Sidmouth
Folk Festival, Saul Rose (Waterson:Carthy,
Faustus) and James Delarre (Mawkin,
Jim Moray Band) have been threatening to play as a duo for some time.
Thankfully they have found enough time in their busy touring schedules to
put together this truly captivating and hypnotic sound. Bringing together
the classic combination of fiddle and melodeon and inspired by 15 years of
playing on the English folk music scene this duo harness all the subtleties
of traditional music while still producing an exciting and energetic display
of musicianship." -
Artists' website
Telling The Bees: "are an innovative acoustic band
making a unique and original music they call darkly crafted folk. They met
in 2007 at Oxford's legendary Catweazle Club, and
have released two acclaimed albums, Untie the Wind and An English Arcanum.
In 2011 they expanded to the current five-piece line-up and their eagerly
awaited third album, Steer by the Stars, is released on May 1st 2015.
Taking their inspiration from folklore, landscape, psychedelia,
paganism, and the politics of protest, Telling the Bees mix driving songs
and tune-sets with haunting ballads. Intelligent lyrics, exotic rhythms and
modes, and instruments as varied as fiddle, mandolin, cello, double bass,
concertina, stomp box and English bagpipes are brought together in skilful arrangements, wild at times, gentle
at others. With a powerful sound, Telling the Bees conjure vivid images, as
crafted, rugged and graceful as a woodcut." - Artists' website
Niamh Boadle:
"hasn’t just jumped off the bus and decided to be a folk star.
Her apprenticeship started as a young kid turning up and doing folk club
spots playing, singing or dancing. The first time I heard her I was
gob-smacked. For a youngster she was far too good a guitarist, far too
talented a musician and far too engaging and mature with her audience. So
when that gorgeous voice sails beautifully across a club room or festival
site we all put our drinks down, stand straight and still and acknowledge
that we are hearing and sharing something very special. Her career
inevitably continues to blossom. Her club and festival performances are
unique and inspiring to musicians of all ages and she stands head and
shoulders above her peers. Her success is guaranteed. Catch a performance
at a club near you soon. Great songwriter!!! She is magic!!!" -
Anthony John Clarke
"Niamh Boadle comes from
the Fylde coast of Anglo-Irish stock and Maid On The Shore, her second
album, reflects her heritage. It’s an intriguing mix of traditional
and modern music in which it can be hard to distinguish between the two.
Niamh is a multi-instrumentalist, playing guitar, fiddle, whistles,
mandolin and bodhran but she doesn’t
indulge in flashy multi-tracking. She’s joined on three tracks by
Paul Sartin on piano and oboe but his contributions
are unobtrusive." - Wildgoose Records

Mollie O'Brien & Rich Moore: She has been called one of roots
music’s best interpreters and singers, and her voice described as
“smooth,” “smoky,” “powerful,” and “bright
and bold as sheet lightning.” Once you’ve heard it,
you’re hooked. Mollie’s recordings are a tribute to the variety
of her taste and the versatility of her performance. On her solo CDs
— Every Night in the Week and I Never Move Too Soon (on Resounding
Records) and Tell It True, Big Red Sun, and Things I Gave Away (on Sugar
Hill) — she moves without hesitation from style to style, dipping
into the songs of Lennon and McCartney, Percy Mayfield, Memphis Minnie,
Chuck Berry, and the Subdudes. Showcasing her
old-time, folk, blues, and gospel chops are three albums with Tim
O’Brien (Take Me Back, Remember Me, and Away Out on the Mountain
— all on the Sugar Hill label). There have been any
number of collaborations, most notably the Grammy-winning True Life
Blues: The Songs of Bill Monroe (Sugar Hill) with a stellar bunch of
bluegrass greats. For the past few years, Mollie has worked with Garrison
Keillor and Robin & Linda Williams as the Hopeful Gospel Quartet, with
her own five-piece band, and as a duo with husband Rich Moore. Mollie has earned
rave notices at major festivals and venues throughout the U.S. and in the
United Kingdom, Europe, and South America." - Artist's website
"Rich Moore is well-known and well-loved in
Colorado's acoustic music family and has lived and performed here for over
25 years. He made his reputation early on as bassist and guitarist with
stellar local outfits like The Solid Senders, and in recent years has been
the rhythmic bedrock for Pete Wernick's Live
Five, Celeste Krenz, and with ensembles fronted
by his wife, the internationally-esteemed vocalist Mollie O'Brien. He is
guitarist of choice for folk legend Tom Paxton, who invariably requests
Moore as a sideman for his Colorado shows." - Artist's website
The rightly celebrated husband and wife duo of Mollie
O'Brien & Rich Moore will be in concert with Little Rock Folk Club on
Fri May 15th 2015 - info at www.littlerockfolkclub.org/
