Jon Boden
-------------
Best known for as lead singer of the folk big band Bellowhead, which sold over a quarter of a million albums over their twelve year career, Jon Boden‘s repertoire extends far beyond the boundaries of the folk genre.
Drawn from the line-up of Jon’s genre-busting big band The Remnant Kings, Jon Boden & The Remnant Strings features Jon Boden (fiddle, guitars, concertina, stomp-box), Helen Bell (viola), Morven Bryce (violin) and Lucy Revis (cello). This special performance offers a more intimate experience. Expect music from Jon’s solo albums and from across his career including Bellowhead, Spiers & Boden and Folk Song A Day.
“Resurrects the swagger of Bellowhead" Financial Times
"Ambitious, genre-busting folk" The Guardian

Amadou Diagne
------------------
Amadou Diagne is a multi-instrumentalist, composer & singer, with traditions of West Africa at his fingertips.
Emerging from a family line of percussionists and singers in Senegal, and former member of l’Orchestre National du Senegal, his unique sound has seen him play stages & festivals all over the globe, collaborating with some of the biggest names in world music.
Expect kaleidoscopic kora, sunshine & spine-tingling effortless melodies.
