Peter Knight’s Gigspanner Trio in Concert

Since his inaugural performance with Steeleye Span in 1970, Peter Knight has been a mainstay of the British folk scene. In the wake of Steeleye Span, Peter turned his attention to Gigspanner Trio, establishing their reputation as one of the most genuinely ground-breaking forces on the British folk scene, Described by Folk Radio UK as one of the “most quietly brilliant sets of musicians in the folk world and beyond”, they take self-penned material along with music rooted in the British Isles and beyond, and with the flick of a bow, a finely chosen chord or slip of a beat, produce richly atmospheric arrangements. Peter is joined by Roger Flack on Guitar and Sacha Trochet on Percussion.

Festival bar will be available before the start of the concert and during the interval. Doors open 7pm.
