Description
Miranda Sykes and Hannah Martin were working on a new project focusing on traditional song when coronavirus hit. Although both artists have worked for many years within the folk world, neither felt they had dedicated enough time to purely traditional material. Discovering a magical alchemy in singing together, the pair formed a duo.
Miranda Sykes, solo artist and singer and bass player with Show of Hands, is one of UK folk´s most respected musicians. A 20-year career has seen her play with many of the finest performers in the folk and roots world. She is an in-demand session player; while her crystalline voice has established her as a leading interpreter of song, whether performing solo or in a larger line up.
Hannah Martin is best known for her work in the BBC Folk Award winning duo Edgelarks. Playing fiddle, banjo and tenor guitar, Hannah has been described as having ?one of the best voices on the planet? (FATEA). She has toured internationally; written for theatre shows; played as part of Steve Knightley´s Wake The Union band, and Nancy Kerr´s Sweet Visitor Band. She is also part of the Gigspanner Big Band.
