Event information
The Low Drift are three acclaimed singer-songwriters - Emma Thorpe, Matt Hill and Huw Costin. They go on walks and write songs about them. The songs explore folklore, family, childhood and the memories that landscapes evoke.
Inspired by a previous generation of English folk and poet musicians – Julian Cope, Robert Wyatt, Kate Bush - they travel beyond the Keep Out signs to the ancient green lanes and sunken tracks, where our ancestors buried their bones.
This engaging performance of songs and stories will feature shimmering 12 string guitars, minimalist folk picking, spooky harmonies and primitive synths sounds.
The Low Drift is a show that will reinvigorate your relationship to these wonderful islands we live on.
