Megson

Tickets £10 (Con £8)

 

The nomination for Megson in the category of best duo in the 2009 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards is well deserved recognition of their wonderful musical chemistry. Stu and Debbie Hanna create the most amazing vocal harmonies, allied with Stu's blistering guitar style means that you have to keep checking the stage, as there sounds more than just two voices and one guitar.

Their third album Take Yourself A Wife was released in September 2008 to critical acclaim. The album consists of songs written from the 18th to 20th Centuries centred around Teeside, Newcastle and the North East. Megson have added their own superb arrangements and harmonies to create a mature, poignant yet infectiously joyful album.

The Guardian **** Megson have steadily established their reputation as two freshest, most original performers in the latest folk revival, and this album (Take Yourself a Wife) places them in the major league...a subtle and intriguing set
Songlines **** ‘Take Yourself a Wife is a marriage made in heaven’
Maverick ***** ‘This is an exceptional record’
