Doors open 8pm
Seated show
After 2 hugely acclaimed albums with brother Olly Knight, Marry has teamed up with well-respected singer-songwriter/guitarist David A.Jaycock and released critically acclaimed ‘Two Wolves’ on the One Little Indian label last year.
Daughter of Lal Waterson (from legendary English Folk group The Watersons) Marry’s music is steeped in the English tradition, but it is all original and has attracted some incredible previous acclaim.
Her music has had recent airtime on BBC Radio 2 and BBC6 Music, and her previous record was nominated for a BBC Radio 2 Folk Award. She’s appeared live in session on the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show previously and also been a guest on Woman’s Hour.
“’Two Wolves’ is more than two fine English folk dynasties meeting. This is proper song brainfood.” *****fROOTS
“A more ambiguous trajectory than before, bringing ‘Two Wolves’ into line with the psych-folk lineage of the late 1960s. Most attractive.”
****INDEPENDENT on SUNDAY
“Perfectly balances traditional & contemporary [folk]…echoes of Nick Drake, Vashti Bunyan and Sandy Denny while Woolgathering Girl is more reminiscent of latter-day Kate Bush.” ****METRO
“A gorgeously simple and direct record…holds up a light to the blackest of winter nights.” ****Q MAGAZINE
“Jaycock’s delicate arrangements light Waterson’s tales with an enchanted pastoral glow, lifting them to somewhere truly beautiful, strange and unique.” ****MOJO
“Her finest album to date.” ****THE GUARDIAN
