Songs new and old with a dash of humour and a good measure of storytelling. A slice of pure musical joy with two renowned folk artists – award winning singer Heidi Talbot, and renowned guitarist Boo Hewerdine.
For over 30 years, Ivor Novello award winning Boo Hewerdine has been considered one of the UK’s finest singer-songwriters. As lead singer of seminal band The Bible through to his subsequent solo work and long-time collaboration with the incredible Eddi Reader, he has become something of a national treasure. He is in demand as a writer, producer and performer. Over a hundred of his songs have been covered by the likes of KD Lang, Kris Drever, Chris Difford, Duke Special and Hannah Rarity.
Heidi has shared the stage and recorded with Mark Knopfler, Graham Coxon (Blur), Eddi Reader, Idlewild, Matt Rollings, King Creosote, Kris Drever, Tim O’Brien and Jerry Douglas. She is equally at home in front of a Symphony Orchestra, performing widely at Arts Centres, Festivals and even at the White House.
Heidi’s ethereal voice and musical fluency perfectly balances Boo’s thoughtful songwriting. Together, they create intimate musical moments that showcase both their individual artistry and their rare collaborative chemistry.
