Come and celebrate International Women's Day 2019 with Coven - the collective of three of the British folk scene’s finest, most formidable and forthright acts: the exquisitely harmonic songwriting duo and BBC 6 Music favourites O’Hooley & Tidow; the enchanting BBC Radio 2 Folk Award winning band Lady Maisery, and the irrepressible Leicester songwriter, activist and performer Grace Petrie.
Four years ago, they got together to celebrate International Women’s Day with a series of three concerts. Since then, the tour has extended year on year, with 2017 seeing them release Unholy Choir; an EP of the songs the group has collaborated on ("potency and purpose" - Louder Than War).
Coven's 2019 tour includes six of their favourite venues. Advance booking highly recommended!
Lady Maisery – “With purpose and urgency, they create powerful, enthralling work" Songlines
O’Hooley & Tidow – "Defiant, robust, political, northern, poetical folk music for the times we live in.’" Independent
Grace Petrie – "A powerful new songwriting voice." Guardian
7:30 doors - 8pm start.
