The FC Irish & English Folk Band ref: 4946
An Irish & English Session Band. From the dawn of time our ancestors and those before us have defined their cultural progress with stories and music. Long before the written word our islands tribes were telling stories of heroes and singing songs propelling the protagonist into immortality.
This band are the up and coming folk force out of Somerset, bringing back the tradition in folk music writing. Dora writes from the heart and has a knack of framing the stories in such a way that people have said that the songs she has written “must be Traditional!”.
The band play irish folk, english folk, original folk tunes and songs.
Testimonials
| "Thanks a million .. for doing the set at Bath - it was a lovely set, full of warmth and fine music, and the perfect contrast with my steamroller blood-and-thunder approach! A real delight to listen to." | |
| “We first saw the band at Brampton Festival, and later caught them at Bath Folk Club. Dora’s rich, deep voice draws you into the stories of the songs she writes and chooses from the tradition, and she is ably and sensitively supported by Dan on Bodhran and Gem on guitar. The audience was clearly appreciative of their take on vibrant acoustic folk. Catch them when you can!” |
