Three Cane Whale

"Exquisite, elegant, atmospheric and charmingly quirky"
The Guardian

Three Cane Whale is a multi-instrumental acoustic chamber-folk trio based in Bristol, featuring members of Spiro, Get The Blessing and Scottish Dance Theatre.

Rooted in landscape, and with many pieces inspired by places in Dorset and Somerset, Three Cane Whale weave intricate, uplifting, and elegiac music that blends cinematic sweep with intimate delicacy. Expect a stage strewn with over a dozen instruments, from the familiar mandolin, harmonium, and acoustic guitar, to the beguilingly unusual, including the eerie bowed psaltery, the baroque-esque Eb trumpet, and the delicate Finnish kantele. Striking multiple instrumental combinations create a kaleidoscope of sound unlike any other.

Their eponymous debut album was chosen by Cerys Matthews as one of her Top Five Modern Folk Albums. For this tour, Three Cane Whale will be performing tunes from their album, Hibernacula, as well as favourites from their back catalogue.
