We’re calling this the cream tea tour. Last week in Wiltshire we had a pretty good one but Matlock just took it to the next level… We’ll have time before our gig in Walton on Thames @riverhousebarn next Friday too, any recommendations for excellent teas in that area?

Really thrilled with this great review from Dave Hadfield in Living Tradition, 

“one of the best duos on the folk scene… sophisticated and multi-layered… the magnificent and utterly distinctive voice of Hannah Martin” 

Catch us in Barton Upon Humber THIS SATURDAY at the wonderful Ropewalk!

Isn’t this beautiful! A gorgeous weekend of private concerts was topped off by being given this amazing enamel work by Isla, our final host’s daughter. It is her very first commissioned piece and we are over the moon to have it!

In Somerset, at the old meeting of three rivers, Burrow Mump rises out of the flat landscape. Today it was covered in wild flowers, and you could see all across the Levels to Glastonbury Tor. Somewhere near the Isle of Avalon, and King Alfred’ s hiding place… I love non motorway touring 😍
We’re off to Bath tonight, Stroud tomorrow, Yorkshire and beyond next week… (at Burrow Mump)

Beautiful review of Feather here from Irish Music Magazine’s Deirdre Cronin. 

“In their songs about hope, Edgelarks flickers candlelight onto our faith in the folk tradition.” - thanks Deirdre!   

BBC Radio Lincolnshire - Thursday Night Folk, 09/05/2019

So pleased to have been played on the BBC Radio Lincolnshire Folk Show, including a reminder that we are playing at the wonderful Ropewalk in Barton Upon Humber on May 25th - tickets from http://www.roperyhall.co.uk/music/ or 01652 660380

EDGELARKS – Feather (Dragonfly Roots DRCD006)

Lovely review from Mike Davies at folking.com -

“They describe their intention as to create an album of “bright songs for dark days”. Let it light up your life.”
