KATHRYN Roberts and Sean Lakeman have long established themselves as one of the UK folk scene’s most rewarding enduring partnerships.

Twice winners of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Duo in 2013 and 2016, the couple’s intimacy and strength of passion on stage have won them many fans and an enviable reputation as excellent songwriters.

See them live on stage at Broadwindsor Comrades Hall next Saturday, January 14 as part of an Artsreach tour.

Their greatly varied original songs cover subjects such as wicked mermaids, Norwegian legends and a lonely whale.

Following on from their last two highly praised albums Hidden People and Tomorrow Will Follow Today, fans of acoustic music can only wonder where this leading couple will choose to turn next. With a story that includes over 20 years of music making, Kathryn and Sean have consolidated themselves as pillars of modern British folk.
