M G Boulter
For what has become an annual visit to Davenham Players Theatre - M G Boulter is a singer songwiter living on the Thames coast in Essex, United Kingdom. His songwriting has been described as “Gorgeous, in a word” by Uncut and “Highly Recommended” by the Independent on Sunday. His second full length album With Wolves the Lamb Will Lie was listed as one of the ‘Best Folk Albums of 2016’ by the Daily Telegraph.
M G has been a member of Blue Rose Code, Emily Portman’s Coracle Band and The Lucky Strikes and was a touring member of US groups The Duke and the King and the Simone Felice Group.
2025 has seen Matt opening for Eddi Reader on an extensive tour of the UK - whilst also gigging as a part of Jon Boden's Remnant Kings, here, there and everywhere...
"He's a major talent in my opinion. It's an outstanding album - it's the best new record I've heard all year. Well done M G, you can come play in my kitchen any time" Andy Kershaw
Expect the night to draw from M G's latest LP Days Of Shaking and Clifftown plus others from his extensive back catalogue.
Neil McSweeney
[From Wikipedia]
Neil McSweeney is a British songwriter and musician based in Sheffield, England. His acoustic guitar playing style combines folk, blues and country influences but it is his voice, likened by The Guardian to a male Tracy Chapman, and his direct and personal lyrics, for which he is most recognised.
McSweeney’s debut album, Remember To Smile was released in 2006 by Sheffield independent label, LM Music. Tracks from the album attracted national radio play from BBC Radio 2 and the digital station BBC Radio 6 Music. This led to "Postcards" being released as a single by Kids Records, the singles arm of Warner Music UK subsidiary 14th Floor Records. Further national radio exposure followed including the track being playlisted by XFM.
Around this time McSweeney also accompanied his friend Stoney on record, on tour and in session for BBC Radio 2’s Dermot O'Leary at Maida Vale Studios.
Extensive touring in the UK followed before the second album, Shoreline emerged in 2009. This was self-released and attracted positive reviews in the national press, as well as the attention of fellow Sheffield musician, Richard Hawley. Following support sets at The Crucible in Sheffield and the Royal Festival Hall, McSweeney accompanied Hawley as main support on the European leg of his Truelove’s Gutter tour.
During a hiatus from touring in 2011 and 2012, reportedly to spend more time with his young family, McSweeney developed friendships with musicians from the English folk and roots scene. This developed into collaborations which formed the basis for an EP (The Seventeen EP) and a third full-length album (Cargo) both released in 2013. The album features contributions from Lucy Farrell, Sam Sweeney, Brooks Williams, Matt Boulter, Vera Van Heeringen, Jock Tyldesley, Andy Seward and others.
In late 2013, McSweeney supported English folk group Bellowhead on their UK tour. He was accompanied by Vera van Heeringen and Sweeney. Van Heeringen and McSweeney subsequently collaborated on an EP (released in October 2015).
Other projects include GluePot (with Farrell and Boulter), who
released an EP (Lulu the Bear and other Stories) in 2015, and Holler, with Fay Hield and Jon Boden.
In 2016, McSweeney co-founded Hudson Records with his friend, record producer Andy Bell. In September that year, he also joined the University of Sheffield's Department of Music, where he teaches Music Management, Popular Music Studies, and songwriting.
Hudson Records released McSweeney's fourth album, A Coat Worth Wearing, in March 2017.
