Artisan

Look out, folks they're baaack!
When a cappella singers Artisan hung up their tonsils in November 2005 they weren't adamant about saying: Never again, but they knew they were going to wait for the right time to do a reunion tour. Finally Artisan's own itchiness to sing some harmonies again got the better of them. This short reunion tour sees them doing dates in the UK in July and September 2010 (with festivals in Canada in August andwiched in the middle.)
Birthed in 1985 as a fun thing to do, Artisan kept getting invited to play more and more gigs until finally they kicked their day jobs into touch and went full time in 1989. After that they toured relentlessly throughout the UK, Canada, the USA, Europe and even Australia via Hong Kong until 2005. Heady stuff. Now they're looking forward to being back on the road and meeting up with friends old and new. There will be old favourites and some new original Brian Bedford songs plus a new CD released in July.
This will be a very special evening not to be missed!!!

14th September - Landermason

At Home and appearing at the St Neots Folk Festival 2009

Fiona Lander and Paul Mason collectively known as 'Landermason' have been writing, recording and performing together since 2000. Multi instrumentalist Fiona (vocals, piano, whistles, saxes, clarinet and recorder) and Paul (guitars and vocals) have developed a unique sound which displays their undoubted talents. They combine both traditional and contemporary folk with jazz and other styles in their beautiful and striking arrangements.

Landermason have recorded and produced 4 CD's to date on their own label LAMA Records. Tracks from their most recent albums 'The Reason' and 'Angel of the North' have gained national airplay on BBC Radio 2 and 3 as well as on many other radio shows across the network.

The LIVE sound is impressive, full of variety and with plenty of audience interaction. Often described as 'refreshingly different', Landermason are equally at home entertaining audiences in folk and acoustic music clubs, theatres, festivals, village halls and pubs and are proud to have performed at some of the UK's best known live music venues including St Neots Club and Festival!
