Event information
Now in its sixth year the festive roots music super-group A Winter Union is ready to dust off the decorations and hit the road again! After a busy year releasing albums in their other respective bands, all of which have featured on Folk Radio UK, Hannah Sanders & Ben Savage, Katriona Gilmore and Jamie Roberts (BBC Folk Award nominees Gilmore & Roberts, Emily Askew Band) and Jade Rhiannon (The Willows) are excited to roll out their unique festive show. The band perform folk songs from across the Yuletide traditions and will delight you with glorious wassails and carols of course, but also a smattering of country classics and covers, and original songs heralding the joys of the season. These songs are stirred together with such beautiful 5-part harmonies that you won’t be able to resist but join your voice with theirs. And not only that! There’s dobro and fiddle, mandolin and dulcimer, guitars a-plenty and a shruti box thrown in for good measure. A Winter Union are touring throughout December 2019
