A
gig
held at Bristol Folk House
on Saturday 16th November. The event starts at 20:00.
Evocative and distinctive, Suthering (Julu Irvine & Heg Brignall) transport audiences with exquisite vocal harmonies and their message of hope during hard times. They bring chemistry and humour to the stage, championing female characters, creating new narratives for women and unearthing the female heroines of folk.
Leave a light on is Suthering’s second studio album. Produced by Sean Lakeman (Levellers, Seth Lakeman), the album is a bold new direction in sound for the duo. It’s a poignant and powerful exploration of themes affecting the social and political landscape. The album is a collection of personal reflections, captivating stories and modern day songs of protest and unity.
“These songs have a rawness and an honesty about them. It’s more personal than our first album and Sean’s influence has helped push our sound in a new and exciting direction. We can’t wait to tour it.” – Heg Brignall, Suthering
“Excellent musicians, beautiful harmonies and a fresh approach to traditional music”- Tony Birch, FATEA Magazine *****
