Welcome to our annual end-of-season celebration of Twelfth Night and Old Christmas: packed with live folk music and a nod to the pagan and the impish. We're thrilled to present these fabulous musicians from across the North at York's unique & ancient Black Swan Inn.
Featuring
ANCIENT HOSTILITY Passionate political and personal song in thrilling harmony, in the vein of The Young Tradition - plus fiddle and squeezebox!
JOSHUA ARNOLD AND THERINE This folk duo from the North West performs vocal-led trad and experimental versions of songs in the British folk canon, with instrumentation including hurdy gurdy, harmonium and DIY instruments.
PEFKIN Pefkin creates slowly-unfolding, ritualistic hymnals that draw heavily on the landscape and the natural world, using processed violin/viola, electronics, voice and field recordings
WHITE SAIL York's multi-instrumental alt-folk legends return to weave their sound-spells for the last night of the season.
*This event will sell out, so advance booking is recommended!
