SoP Live and Swindon Folk Club are very pleased to be able to bring the wonderful Lost Trades back to Swindon. The Lost Trades are a Folk/Americana trio, based in the West Country, with a cool Laurel Canyon vibe. With a sound that is reminiscent of the California folk scene of the late 60s/early 70s, their three-part harmonies have been described as "flawless", "spine tingling" and "magical".
After a global pandemic cut short their first tour after just a single sold out gig, the band retreated to their song writing rooms to work on their debut album, "The Bird, The Book & The Barrel". The album was released in June 2021 and was well received, spending 8 months in the Official UK Folk Albums Chart. The follow up, "Petrichor" was released in March 2023, and immediately followed suit, entering the chart at #31.
A live performance involves easy interchanging of instruments, with each of the three playing guitar, bass and percussion at different points. There's always a fun intimacy to the show, with the three engaging in comfortable repartee with each other and the audience like a group of old friends.
Support from Siena Wileman. Having released her debut song two years ago, at only fourteen (she started writing songs at age ten), Sienna is obviously at the start of a long and interesting musical trajectory. But already, she is standing out from the singer-songwriter pack via some wonderfully dark pop songs, poetic lyricism, and clever arrangements. She is definitely one to watch.
Advance tickets are £8 and available online via seetickets (see link on this page). Physical tickets from the venue will be available soon.
