In an unmissable collaboration, five of the English folk scene’s most inventive artists bring you

Awake Arise – A Christmas Show For Our Times; celebrating the riches of our varied winter traditions and reflecting upon the hope and resilience in music and song that can bring joy to us all in the darkest season.

Award-winning trio Lady Maisery(Hannah James, RowanRheingans and Hazel Askew) have for nearly a decade produced ‘some of the most exquisite, thrilling vocal harmony work in the English folk scene’ The Guardian

The beguiling musical partnership of Jimmy Aldridge and Sid Goldsmith completes the powerful line-up, bringing outstanding vocals, sensitive instrumentation and powerful social conscience that has won them widespread critical acclaim. ‘Rousing stuff’ TheObserver.

Featuring traditional songs, folk carols, spoken word and newly written music to galvanise and brighten this darkest season, Awake Ariseis a warm gift to the wintertime from five of the most engaging and celebrated performers on the English folk scene. True to the reputations of both acts as out-spoken voices on the folk scene, this collection is also a rallying cry to embrace the power of collective endeavour as vital support during times of hardship and loneliness. In this most uncertain of winters, Awake Ariseis more than just a great night out; these are essential songs which remind us who we are and why we matter to each other.
