As part of the Metronome Folk Sessions – bringing together the best folk musicians from around the world, for intimate seated performances

Support: Firewoodisland and Jess Breame

Described by Folk Radio UK as ‘weaving an especially compelling magic’, The Brothers Gillespie sing with glorious tones of harmony.

Firewoodisland deliver dynamic vocal harmonies and create an anthemic, cinematic sound with organic elements from folk

Showing British acoustic music in its best possible light, Northumbrian duo The Brothers Gillespie make music that is animated by lyrical song writing, fine fingerstyle guitar playing, multi-instrumental musicianship and ‘the glorious tones of their blood harmony’

The live shows have a rare and intimate energy, both ethereal and earthy, romantic and radical.

“Anyone who has seen the brothers live will surely attest that it is an experience that will stay with you. There is a feeling of warmth that exudes from them and affects everyone in the room.” – Nygel Packett, Folk London review of The Merciful Road
