The Gigspanner Big Band are a unique force in British folk music. Their high-energy performances have broad appeal, from traditionalists to those looking for something a bit different.Gigspanner began life as a trio with legendary fiddle player Peter Knight, percussionist Sacha Trochet and guitarist Roger Flack. The line-up has since expanded to include multi-instrumental duo Edgelarks (Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin – BBC Folk Awards ‘Best Duo’) and Bellowhead co-founder and melodeon player extraordinaire, John Spiers. Together they are The Gigspanner Big Band.
‘The kind of re-enchantment which only comes from top-class musicians with a deep understanding of their material. Simply remarkable.’ ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ R2 Magazine
