Event Information
“Savagely perceptive lyrics, ear catching vocals and melodies to die for!” (Louder Than War)
Four times nominated in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and double winners of the Spiral Earth awards, Megson create a truly unique brand of folk music, and we’re delighted to be welcoming back to the beautiful Square Tower following their two previous sell out shows here in the past.
Combining an infectious mix of heavenly vocals, lush harmonies, and driving rhythmic guitars, Megson have gained a reputation not only for their arresting and intelligent songwriting, but also for their exquisite musicianship and northern humour. Comprising Debs Hanna (Vocals, Whistle, Piano Accordion) and Stu Hanna (Guitar, Mandolin, Banjo, Vocals), Megson have been described as “the most original duo on the British folk scene” by The Guardian, and as FRoots Magazine puts is “if you don’t like the music here then you have a problem!”.
“Simply brilliant!” (Sunday Express)
