# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Milkweed + The Silver Field + Woodpig (solo)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 22 May, 2025 at 07:30 pm
- **Event Description**: For three years Milkweed have refined a formula – taking existing source material (a folklore journal, a book on Welsh myths, another on bronze age human remains), cutting up the words and feeding them through a woodchipper of lo-fi production and experimental folk music. This time, however, they decided to push themselves further – to use all 400 pages of Thomas Kinsella’s masterful translation of the Táin Bó Cúailnge, rather than manipulated snippets. After it took an entire year just to process 20 pages, however, G found herself humbled. “It made me appreciate oral traditions in a completely different way, the intensity with which you had to engage with the work to feel like you could understand and transmit it.”

Exile of the Sons of Uisliu is one of many remscéla, or pre-tales, leading up to the Táin. In the text, Derdriu, ‘the loveliest woman in all Ireland’, has been raised in isolation until she is ready for the bed of Conchobor, high king of Ulster. Derdriu falls in love with Noisiu, one of the sons of Uisliu, and together they escape to Alba where they again find themselves in peril. They are lured back to Ulster by Conchobor, but are ultimately betrayed.

The Silver Field is a sound world of Coral Rose Kindred-Boothby. Voice, tapes, bass, samples, synthesis, strings, reeds, drums, small sounds, big sounds, sunlight, moonlight, a lot of water. Using her modular synthesiser and other self-built electronic instruments, she weaves together song-soundscapes, creating a rich and dream-like tapestry of sound that draws from folk music tradition, experimental electronics and psychedelia.

Her LPs 'Rooms' and 'Sing High! Sing Low', and split EP with Betwixt & Between Tapes received press in The Guardian, Mojo and The Quietus among others, and have had radio play and guest playlists on BBC 6Music and NTS. 

The Silver Field received the Oram Award in 2024. The Oram Awards is a platform to elevate the work and voices of women and gender non-conforming artists innovating in sound, music and related technology.

WOODPIG is the latest project from Hastings-based Al Mitchell, blending indie-folk and Americana roots with modern electronic production. Armed with just his guitar and a passion for storytelling, Mitchell draws inspiration from folk legends while using electronic textures to elevate his sound. His songs evoke a deep sense of change, loss, resilience and personal journey, channeling the rustic charm of traditional folk with a contemporary twist. WOODPIG’s music embodies a unique fusion of acoustic warmth and atmospheric electronics, allowing Mitchell to craft narratives that resonate in both intimate and expansive sonic landscapes.
