Alice Night is a candid singer-songwriter and performer likely to make you laugh, cry or both. She delivers soul-stirring songs alongside entertaining off-the-cuff banter. Alice has won the hearts of many over the last ten years of recording, releasing and touring original folk music. This show marks the release of the next single 'Much About Anything' from her new album 'Wild Ivy.' Alice offers her audiences an oasis for feelings and contemplation, while singing songs that dip seamlessly between the mundane and the profound. Her vocal tone is both soothing and evocative as it draws out the truth in the room.
Purdie Wood will be offering a unique form of traditional wordless prayer and selected re-imagined popular and traditional songs accompanied by the Irish hand drum. She sings on the subjects of death, despair and longing and yet leaves audiences more awake to beauty. Purdie's voice has been shaped by the bellows of her ancestors and their ties to the ancient traditions of keening and lilting stemming from the British Isles. Her vocal liquidity resonates through the heart as it reaches back into the depths of time, and reacquaints us with a much needed connection to the earth and the unseen realms.
