Anousha Victoire is a weaver of everyday dreams, stitching folk/world influenced melodies with bell-over-water clarity of vocal tone.Her live performance combines the soaring vocal range of Kate Bush, the melodic pop folk feels of Beth Orton, the fearless feminist fire of Ani Difranco, and the haunting roots melodies of Gillian Welch. With her rotating band of highly accomplished strings and percussion, the introspective singer-songwriter blends delicate ideas with a heart-aching immediacy.

Peter Hicks and Maurie Mulheron – When Woody Met Pete: the songs of Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger.
Peter and Maurie present their new show exploring the songs and stories that made Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger two of the most influential musicians of the twentieth century.
The concert features the songs of Guthrie, who inspired generations of singer-songwriters, and Seeger, the most boycotted, banned, blacklisted, and picketed musician in American history. Their chance meeting in 1940 changed the course of musical history sparking the world-wide folk music revival.
Sing along to classic folk songs like If I Had a Hammer, This Land is Your Land, Union Maid, Midnight, Special, Turn! Turn Turn! and many more.
Maurie and Peter will take you on a musical journey from the 1930s and 40s, through to the post-
war optimism, the blacklists of the frightened ‘fifties, to the protest movements of the 1960s, and
beyond.
Peter Hicks and Maurie Mulheron are well-known singer-songwriters on the folk music circuit playing
clubs, concerts, picket-lines, and festivals here and overseas.
