Concert at Rook Lane Arts Chapel featuring ‘Leveret’

Leveret head to Rook Lane Arts Chapel in Bath Street on Friday 20th February at 7.30pm for this concert on their forthcoming February tour.

Leveret features three of England’s finest folk musicians in an exciting new collaboration.  Andy Cutting, Sam Sweeney and Rob Harbron are each regarded as masters of their instrument and are involved in numerous collaborations with a huge range of artists.

Together their performances combine consummate musicianship, compelling delivery and captivating spontaneity.

Leveret’s music is new and fresh yet firmly rooted in the English tradition, with original settings of ancient tunes sitting alongside new compositions by some of today’s finest folk tunesmiths.

Sophisticated and honest, considered yet often impromptu, each performance is largely improvised – ensuring no two shows are the same; each performance a totally unique experience for the audience.

Andy Cutting is an exceptional player of the melodeon, known for his work with Martin Simpson, Blowzabella, Chris Wood, June Tabor, Kate Rusby, and many more.

Sam Sweeney, the fiddle player in Bellowhead, is also in demand as a multi-instrumentalist, working with Jon Boden and the Remnant Kings, The Full English, Fay Hield and the Hurricane Party, and his own project Made In The Great War.

Rob Harbron has reinvented the English concertina and is known for his work with The Full English, Jon Boden and the Remnant Kings, Fay Hield, Emma Reid and the English Acoustic Collective.

“Sublime, exquisite music – don’t miss them” – Martin Simpson
