A highly original and energetic musical force just as likely to move you to tears as to move you to your feet.
Frequently referred to as one of the hardest working bands on the scene, The Shackleton Trio is gaining significant UK and International exposure, becoming an in-demand name on the folk circuit. They have been featured on Mark Radcliffe's Radio 2 Folk Show and BBC Radio 4, and an appearance on Cambridge Folk Festival's main stage alongside a host of UK and European festivals and international tours.
The trio feature Georgia Shackleton (fiddle, vocals), Aaren Bennett (guitar) and Nic Zuppardi (mandolin). Natural talents of the folk tradition, their self-penned material blends seamlessly with their imaginative yet authentic re-workings of traditional folk standards, influenced by British, American and Scandinavian folk traditions, with a regional twist from the group's native East Anglia.

The Larks Liz Miller and Chris Wilbraham, have been singing and playing together in pubs, folk clubs and festivals since meeting at a musical night in The Bear Inn, Beyton in 2007. They continue to host it quarterly. They can be found playing at Folk clubs, bars, pubs, restaurants and Folk festivals, where they entertain with their own quirky take on a diverse range of songs from the likes of Gillian Welch, Radiohead, Joni Mitchell, The Smiths, Johnny Cash and The Cure. They add their own material to the mix, using guitars, mandolin, harmonies and sometimes rapping to put the songs across.
