Live Music: Beresford Marsh

Join us for an intimate night exploring soundscapes both traditional and experimental...
Shades of blues, exotic drones and pastoral folk drift in and out of focus in this English/Welsh Primitive, perhaps, or traditional music from an as yet undiscovered planet.
Charlie Beresford is a visual artist, guitarist, singer, instrument designer, engineer and filmmaker. His work as a musician has traced a singular path, blending elements of folk, modern classical and jazz and earning him much critical acclaim in the UK and Europe.
His credits include two solo records, collaborations with bassist Tim Harries, cellist Sonia Hammond, guitarist Christian Vasseur and many others. In 2010 he helped found Fourth Page, whose blend of song forms and impressionistic improvisation has drawn comparisons with the work of David Sylvian and
Franz Schubert to name but two.
Peter Marsh spent decades as a bass player working across a baffling range of genres from straight jazz to free improv to folk to electronica, before taking up the lap steel guitar during the lockdowns of 2020.
He has played with or for artists such as Lol Coxhill, Alan Wilkinson, Alex Paterson (The Orb), Julie Kjaer, Clang Sayne, John Sinclair, Spring Heel Jack, The Tiger Lillies, Fourth Page, Woven Entity, The Quiet Temple, Andrew Sharpley, Julie Campiche, Martin Siewert, Karl Blake, Vibration Black Finger, Petra Jean Phillipson, and Duke Garwood.
In the depths of the Welsh winter of 2024/2025, these two old friends met up, put the kettle on, settled down in front of an open fire and played some music. The results defy easy categorisation but are marked by much warmth and empathy; shades of blues, exotic drones and pastoral folk drift in and out of focus. English/Welsh Primitive, perhaps, or traditional music from an as yet undiscovered planet.
