Maddy Prior
Advance Price: £25
The Queen of Folk Rock, Maddy Prior has spent a lifetime singing, largely traditional songs, and remains one of the most influential voices in British folk music.
Alongside her celebrated work with Steeleye Span, Maddy has written longer, more exploratory pieces covering subjects as wide-ranging as hares, ravens, the Plantagenets, King Arthur and an imaginative journey through the Chakras.
Mostly written with co-writers, she has now set time aside to create a new piece with Andrew (Spud) Sinclair, guitarist with Steeleye Span.
With the aid of some modern technology, they will bring an evening of thoughtful and engaging material, blending newly written work with depth and atmosphere.
The evening will, of course, also include a selection of traditional and familiar songs.
Still bringing fresh visions after all these years.
