Event information
"The British equivalent of The Gloaming...Catch them live whenever you have the opportunity. Peter Knight’s Gigspanner is a national treasure, and we need their uplifting and alluring music right now" Folk Radio UK
Following his departure from Steeleye Span, legendary fiddle player Peter Knight turned his full attention to his trio Gigspanner, and established their reputation as one of the most genuinely ground-breaking forces on the British folk scene, inspiring Maverick magazine to write "Gigspanner are pushing at the boundaries, and in the process are making some of the most beautiful music the genre has to offer" 5*****
Described by Folk Radio UK as one of the “most quietly brilliant sets of musicians in the folk world and beyond”, Gigspanner take self-penned material along with music rooted in the British Isles, and with the flick of a bow, a finely chosen chord or slip of a beat, produce atmospheric arrangements “with notes seemingly plucked from the stars and rhythms from the equator”
Joining Peter are Roger Flack on Guitar, and Sacha Trochet on Hand Percussion.
