FJDGoose Posted May 1, 2018 Share Posted May 1, 2018 Jim Moray + Counter's Creek + The Norfolk Broads: The Goose Is Out! The Ivy House, 40 Stuart Road, Nunhead, SE15 3BE. Doors open 7pm. Tickets here https://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisoutFor 15 years Jim Moray has been at the forefront of a new movement in English traditional music. His debut album Sweet England changed the sound of folk song and won a brace of awards for its innovative melding of orchestration and electronica. Subsequent albums embraced everything from grime to Johnny Marr-esque guitar pop, but at their heart was always Jim?s unmistakeable soulful and yearning voice; singing old songs in a new way. His sixth album Upcetera heralds a new chapter for the producer and has received the best reviews of his career, including five stars from Mojo, fRoots and R2 magazines.His reimagining of English traditional music found him awarded the unprecedented combination of ?Best Newcomer? and ?Best Album? at the 2004 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.We're delighted Jim is returning to play a solo gig at The Goose Is Out!Counter?s Creek is an acoustic folk trio based in London who make original music inspired by the folk music of the British Isles and beyond. Expect to hear jigs, reels, grooves from Eastern Europe & West Africa, catchy melodies with closely interwoven harmonies allied to a real sense of swing and dance energy.The Norfolk Broads are a four-piece female ensemble who enjoy singing low-pitched folk songs about love, despair, and dastardly boyfriends.They bonded over maritime worksongs and failed romances in the alto section of the Trad Academy Sea Shanty Choir, deciding to form a girl-group during a long car ride to Cornwall in 2015. Since then, they have performed their spirited harmonies at festivals and venues in London and further afield, including Wilton?s Music Hall, the Southbank Centre, Folk East Festival and on board the Cutty Sark.The Broads supply their repertoire of traditional stories with a very contemporary verve and energy, using old songs to fuel new takes on the lives of women both past and present.
