George Sansome and Matt Quinn – 17th March
George (Granny’s Attic) on guitar and vocals and Matt (Dovetail trio) on mandolin and vocals have teamed up to form a perfect folk duo. When asked about their repertoire they say: ‘We both have a really strong love of folk songs and all the stories, history and people involved. Broadly speaking, we sing songs about love, heartbreak, revenge, death, geese, and the US postal service. Classic folk song stuff really.’
