Weaving together mandolin, fiddle, guitar and banjo, their distinctive sound tells stories rooted in East Anglia, while reaching far beyond it.The trio brings together Georgia Shackleton (fiddle, vocals), Aaren Bennett (guitar) and Nic Zuppardi (mandolin, banjo). Drawing on British, American and Scandinavian folk traditions, the band balance deep respect for the past with a fresh, contemporary approach. Georgia’s flair for uncovering lesser-heard East Anglian material keeps the music grounded in place, while the trio’s arrangements feel modern, dynamic and alive.
