Feral folk singer, lover of stone circles, ancestral voices, folk tales, the wyrd and the eerie. “Imagine if Broadcast’s Trish Keenan had been kidnapped at birth by The Copper Family and raised on a diet of Angela Carter’s folk tales” (KLOFmag)

Still swooning, melting & daydreaming over the life affirming tribute to the Life and Songs of Martin Carthy on Saturday. Such an honour to sing in front of my hero, & with such stellar musicians. Martin Carthy Forever. ♥️

Martin Carthy is the Greatest of All Time, pure and simple. I’m beside myself to be taking part in this beautiful event to honour his life and songs. Tomorrow!! ♥️

If you’re in Ashburton, don’t miss the KIT exhibition at lovely Field System gallery. My Wheat Goddess headdress is in there, along with wonderful work by Libby Bove, Penny MacBeth, Rabbit & more… I was lucky enough to play Ashburton Arts Centre for the show opening - hugely thankful 🙏🏾

A Magical dance out with WAD Morris, to celebrate The Newquay Monoliths. I’m on drumming duty as I hurt my foot (an old Morris injury, believe it or not)

The clanking of chains in the bamboo groves at midnight… Rolling Calf is on the prowl. This red-eye duppy is amongst the most feared in Jamaican folklore. Part bull, part goat, always terrifying… Stay tuned for my rolling calf song. And if you see one, good luck trying to ward it off… #FolkHorror
