Festive Folk: The Wilderness Yet

Nationally acclaimed folk trio The Wilderness Yet have established a growing reputation for their detailed arrangements and flawless close–knit harmony singing. The trio combines the clear, charismatic vocals of former BBC Young Folk Award finalist Rosie Hodgson with the instrumental and vocal talents of traditional fiddler Rowan Piggott and guitarist / flautist Philippe Barnes. Together, they weave an eclectic tapestry of traditional songs and dance tunes, from rousing chorus songs to delicate a cappella arrangements. Since their founding in 2019, they have recorded 4 studio albums which have been met with critical acclaim and had airplay on BBC Radio 2, 3 and 6 and the Official Folk Albums Chart.

Lockdown saw the trio record Turn The Year Round, a seasonal album featuring winter songs, wassails, and secular rewrites of classic carols. The album has quickly become a favourite, with the band playing live on BBC Radio 3 on Christmas Day. Now, it’s time for their big festive tour, so come and help them deck the halls as they continue the age–old tradition of singing together at the turn of the year.
