8.15pm January 6th
at the British Legion, Blandford.
Edwina's beautifully written songs, charming stage presence and
voice of an angel have won her a reputation as a true natural talent
of gentle folk-Americana. She has opened numerous shows for Jools
Holland and Van Morrison as well as her own gigs playing stages
everywhere from Glastonbury Festival to The Royal Albert Hall.
Edwina numbers Michael Parkinson and Mike Harding among her fans
and the title track of her album Pour Me A Drink was covered by
Nanci Griffith who calls her 'the sweetest voice in England'.
Edwina is often invited to guest on studio albums and support major
artists on tour and as well as touring with Jools Holland, Van
Morrison and Nanci Griffith, Edwina has also toured with artists
ranging from Loudon Wainwright and Roger McGuinn to KT Tunstall and
Gretchen Peters.
Edwina toured as support with Fairport Convention on their UK
Wintour 2014, toured China a few months later, toured Australia in
Spring 2015 and her next album will be released in Spring 2017.
