"From both
sides of the Tweed and back again, the new and exciting pairing of
Bella Hardy (Carthy, Hardy, Farrell and Young) and Ross Wilson (Blue
Rose Code) have each travelled musical roads from very different
origins. Used to playing in a throng of keen Folk musicians, H&W
will be stripping back their sound for the tour and performing
together.
Bella Hardy is a winner of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2012 for Best
Song, and has been nominated again this year for Folk Singer of the
Year.
With each taking turn leading a song, expect material from both the
Hardy and the Blue Rose Code cannon as well as songs from The Tradition
and their shared influences of Welch & Rawlings, Dick Gaughan,
Patti Griffin and more.
This collaboration is something really special. Two fantastic musicians
coming from very different musical backgrounds is always a recipe for
an exciting gig, and this will be no exception!
