Frank Burkitt & Kara Filbey plus
special guest Chris Dent
Tickets £15 from Ticketsource here
Scottish musician Frank Burkitt has been performing for over 20 years with partner and vocalist/flautist Kara Filbey. They met in Edinburgh in 2004 and have since lived and toured extensively throughout the UK, New Zealand and Australia.
Playing a broad mix of original and traditional Scottish folk songs, Americana and country ballads, Burkitt’s highly intelligent songwriting is what sets him apart, as well as his relaxed stage presence and ability to tell great stories.
“The sincerity and heart that emanates from his song-writing is endearing. People who are truly great at their craft make what they do seem easy.” Janise Kumar – muzic.net
Chris Dent, a.k.a. Albi’s songs and stories are universal, and his captivating sets weave between foot-stomping anthems and melodramatic ballads. All tied together with a little of that dry kiwi wit. With his band Albi & The Wolves, he has played WOMAD, won the Best Folk Artist Award at the Aotearoa (New Zealand) Music Awards, and many other things! So don’t miss your chance to join him for his debut Todmorden gig!
