Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin
2014 BBC FOLK AWARDS WINNERS – BEST DUO
A welcome return to Calstock Arts for this outstanding duo, winners of the Best Duo category of the 2014 BBC Folk Awards.
Recognised as one of the finest slide guitarists the UK has ever produced, Phillip Henry is also a virtuoso on the harmonica. Regarded as, “one of the most extraordinary musicians around” by no less than Steve Knightley, he combines folk melodies from the British Isles, blues, gospel and Indian music in his moving and original compositions and arrangements. His incredible beatbox harmonica technique is legendary.
Hannah Martin is a singer, songwriter, fiddle-and-banjo player, originally from Devon. Her songs weave folklore and legend old and new with beautiful melodies, while retaining a strong sense of the living tradition.
Phillip and Hannah will showcase their new album Mynd, described by Mark Radcliffe as “a thoughtful and moving album with great arrangements”.
