Event information

Holly Clarke and George Sansome, a dynamic duo, who bring captivating arrangements to the forefront of their musical collaboration.

Holly draws from the old ballads and stories, conjures a performance that immediately captivates any listener. As a performer, Holly transports the listener into the heart of ballads, immersing them in the narratives that have shaped humanities experience through time. From songs of the supernatural and folklore, to the tales of love and loss, Holly sings with an infectious energy and passion for traditional song.

With a passion for storytelling and a gift for tapping into the human experience, George is a singer who gets right to the roots of what traditional music is all about. Refreshingly open, expressive and engaging, his performances place a spotlight on human stories, with masterful guitar arrangements that showcase impressive skills whilst giving the songs themselves the space to shine. Taking inspiration from the likes of Nic Jones and Martin Carthy, he delivers a sound that appears stripped back and effortless, yet is brimming with hidden complexities.

As they pick their way through some of their favourite traditional songs, Holly and George are continually exploring innovative ways to arrange the music between their instruments. Their goal is to create arrangements that not only showcase their individual talents but also highlight the unique synergy and connection they have when playing together.
