Sat 20 December // The Furrow Collective will be touring in support of their most recent album We Know By The Moon’, a collection of noctilucent and hibernal songs drawn from the traditions of these isles and beyond. Evoking the uncanny atmosphere of a moonlit midwinter’s night, The Furrow Collective will present eerie story-songs and seasonal carols with their signature spine-tingling harmonies and masterful storytelling, bringing a spark of light into the wintry gloom. This promises to be an unmissable winter’s evening to remember.
Best Group’ BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2017
The Furrow Collective is an English/Scottish band consisting of four talented and individually prominent performers: Lucy Farrell (viola, voice & saw), Rachel Newton (harp, fiddle, voice), Emily Portman (banjo, concertina, voice) and Alasdair Roberts (guitars, voice).
The group formed in 2013, drawn together by a shared love of the traditional song and balladry of England, Scotland and beyond and an open, intuitive approach to collaboration. In recognition of their innovative approach, The Furrow Collective were awarded the accolade of 2017 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards ‘Best Group’, hot on the heels of the release in late 2016 of their second album, Wild Hog (also on Hudson Records).
