Description

We're delighted that Fay is visiting Redcar as part of her solo tour. After performing in a variety of award-winning lineups over the last 15 years, including The Full English and her own band the Hurricane Party, Fay Hield is finally going out alone. Expect stripped back, personal accounts and settings accompanied by banjo and shruti box alongside a cappella renditions and a smattering of percussion. Fay explores what it is in this weird and wonderful world of traditional song that strikes a chord - what in the music, the words, the stories and the journeys they take that make this music so meaningful to us all.

Described as ?getting straight to the heart of the song?, Fay has a rare gift of seeing through the surface of traditional music to unearth deeper meanings, the implications for the characters in the songs and the singers that shared them. This performance will be part history lesson, part literary analysis, chances for a singalong and awe-inspiring performances that unravel and explore the magic of traditional songs.
