Event information
Twelfth Day are not so much a duo, but a two-person quartet. Their two distinctly different voices, the fiddle, and the pedal harp, build layer upon layer of a complex and ever-evolving sound, rich with rhythm, harmony and texture.
Classically trained, they bring outstanding technical ability as well as an adventurous mix of folk, jazz and classical influences to their compositions and arrangements - blended with the folklore and inspirations of their respective Scottish Highland and Lowland upbringings.
Their new album Cracks in the Room, produced by legendary English folk musician Chris Wood and mixed in the USA by Oz Fritz (Tom Waits). “21st century art music for trad fans.” – ***** (fRoots) “Lush orchestral colours... Bang up to date.” (The Sunday Times)
“Surrender to their charms you must… It would be a sin not to.” – (Folk Radio UK).
"Emily Mae Winters has produced an arresting, enthralling tantalising introduction to her work that leaves us hungry for more." (Folk Radio).
“Superbly crafted and dramatic song writing... Winters’ songs reflect a love of poetry, her lyrics giving a dark edge to songs that are beautifully performed.” (R2 Magazine)
"Some singers grow on you over time and others stop you in your tracks. Emily falls in to the second category." (Fatea Magazine)
