Event information
Formed in 2009 The Medlars are folk trio from Essex, performing songs and tunes rooted in the folk tradition and creating arrangements with a contemporary feel. Its current line up formed from a chance encounter at Folk East 2017 and is Alie Barnes – vocals, Emma Hardy – fiddle/vocals, Tom Hardy guitar/vocals.
Alie grew up with the influences of the East Anglian fens in her blood and has been performing and running folk clubs since the mid-1980s. Emma has a classical music background and Tom is a self-taught guitarist, with a wide range of influences from folk to punk. They have built on these original influences drawing in ideas from within and outside the tradition. The Medlars have performed at numerous festivals and clubs
