Bright Phoebus & Live At Sam's Present: Duo Niepold Cutting

Event information

After a rather long hiatus, we are delighted to be presenting two fantastic musicians and friends, Andy Cutting (Blowzabella, Martin Simpson, Leveret, 3 x winner of BBC Folk Musician Of The Year) and the amazing, Anne Niepold from Belgium.

Andy Cutting is well known to Bright Phoebus and Live At Sam's audiences, as a soulful and technically outstanding melodeon player with an ear for a fine tune, who has always been a prominent member of the BP Collective.
He is a warm and emotive performer, modestly engaging his audiences with his self-deprecating wit and then flooring them with downright staggering musicianship. Andy has been a consistent musical force since he came to prominence with the mighty Blowzabella and he is adored by fellow musicians and audiences alike. As well as a thorough grounding in the English tradition, his influences extend way beyond these isles, particularly to the music of Central France and to the storming Quebecois tradition.

Anne Niepold is an extraordinary accordionist and composer. As a performer she is a true force of nature; brash, adventurous and phenomenally skilled. She takes the humble accordion in startling directions; she has always had a reputation for breaking the conventions around this instrument, never hesitating to take it out of her comfort zone. Besides her solo projects she performs with numerous arts companies at home and abroad, and has numerous recordings to her name. A passionate tutor with almost 20 years experience, Anne holds a masters degree in composition and arrangement from the prestigious Brussels Royal Conservatoire

We are so excited to be bringing this innovative and wonderful duo to Sheffield and guarantee that it will be a fantastic night of music at The Greystones.
