tickets here.....https://www.wegottickets.com/event/471485We feel extremely fortunate to have our hands on advance copies of 3hattrio's extraordinarily powerful new album, Live at Zion, ahead of the band's upcoming return for UK and European tour dates, and out they've gone out for review and radio plays. Recorded in a pre-Civil War adobe-and-frame church in the hamlet of Virgin at the mouth of Zion Canyon, Utah, in front of a crowd of neighbours, friends and fans, the love and support that surrounded them made the music soar. The band will have a few pre-release copies with them for these latest UK dates. It does not get its official US release until November.
3HatTrio live ...Sunday Sept 1st!
They took Celtic Connections by storm and triumphed at Denmark's Tønder Festival.
Then, 3hattrio ended 2018 on a high after being voted runner-up in the Best Band of The Year category of the annual Readers' Poll at AmericanaUK.
With banjo, guitar, fiddle and double bass, the extraordinarily evocative music and richly-burnished vocals of this internationally-acclaimed band can raise the hairs on the back of your neck as they create a sound that responds to the natural world of their sacred homeland near Zion National Park, Utah.
They have been described as everything from “fascinating,” “original and addictive” and “enchanting,” to “unique.”
Their live shows have won them 5-star reviews from the critics. American Roots UK said their Solitaire CD was “incredible - an Album of The Year contender,” while Folk Radio UK said they were “hugely atmospheric”
Don’t miss it!

An Evening With GEOFF MULDAUR - Thursday August 29th
The Gulbenkian at the University Of Kent
Geoff Muldaur is one of the great voices and musical forces to emerge from the folk, blues and folk-rock scenes centred in Cambridge, MA and Woodstock, NY.
During the 1960's and '70's, he made a series of highly influential recordings as a founding member of the Jim Kweskin Jug Band and Paul Butterfield's Better Days, as well as collaborations with his then-wife Maria and many others such as Bonnie Raitt and Jerry Garcia.
Many of the biggest names on the scene are fans of the man.
Bonnie Raitt says that he has always been one of her favourites and in a recent interview, Richard Thompson said: “There are only three great white blues singers and Geoff Muldaur is at least two of them.”
Talking after a recent ‘live’ performance, John Sebastian said: “The Lovin’ Spoonful’s favourite singer went and got better,” while Loudon Wainwright III is on record as stating: “Geoff Muldaur was and is one of my musical heroes.”

Tonight’s the night.....
Saturday July 13th at The Gulbenkian, University Of Kent, Canterbury.
The Orchestra That Fell To Earth
Five original members of the Penguin Cafe Orchestra perform the beautiful and incredible music they created with Simon Jeffes and the Orchestra.
The Penguin Café Orchestra first appeared in 1976 and subsequently performed and recorded extensively throughout the 1980s and '90s. Pieces such as ‘Music for a Found Harmonium’ and ‘Telephone and Rubber Band’ became well-known through their use in film soundtracks and advertisements. Sadly the band's founder, Simon Jeffes, died in 1997. For ten years the band played only privately, but returned in 2007 for three sold out concerts at the Union Chapel in London. The Orchestra That Fell To Earth comprising a core group of original members, came together after those concerts, and continue to play in the same spirit. Geoffrey Richardson, Jennifer Maidman, Steve Fletcher and Annie Whitehead, all recorded and toured extensively for many years in the original Penguins. Percussionist Liam
Genockey, long standing member of Steeleye Span, also performed with the original band.
