A night of traditional and contemporary folk song with Sam Browse and Catch the Sparrow
Sam Browse sings folk and protest songs counting Roy Bailey and Tony Benn amongst his greatest influence. Drawing on a folk canon of rakish werewolves, gender-fluid drummers, and inappropriately amorous kings – alongside sounds sampled from Soho to the RVT
Catch the Sparrow is a natural storyteller with a keen ear for captivating melodies, her songs effortlessly cross boundaries of style and genre to create a sound that is uniquely her own. As she taps into folk ballads and fairytales, she introduces a colourful cast of scorned wives, sheltered princesses, free-spirited poets, and crossdressing adventurers, shedding a new light on timeless tales.
