Rated one of Britain's most exciting small acoustic bands ever since
winning the BBC Young Folk Award in 2002, Uiscedwr features Anna
Esslemont on fiddle and vocals and Cormac Byrne (of Seth Lakeman
band fame) on virtuoso bodhran and percussion, producing some of the
most innovative modern 'folk' music you're likely to hear.
Exhaustingly energetic and thrillingly open-minded, Uiscedwr draw on
classical, rock, world and jazz influences, tearing apart hoary
stereotypes while retaining the respect, admiration and affection of folk's
traditional base. Underpinned by the driving guitar and bass playing of
guest musician Nick Waldock, this power trio promises a night you will
not forget in a hurry.
