An evening of fine music from one of the UK's most established & respected duos

Nancy Kerr & James Fagan

Nancy Kerr and James Fagan are winners of the 2011 BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Duo (and previous winners of 2003 Best Duo and 2000 Horizon Award.)

As well as being great exponents of their instruments (fiddle, viola and guitar-bouzouki) both are regarded as fine and influential singers.

2013 marks the 18th year of this electrifying duo. In that time they have toured full-time and headlined festivals throughout the UK, Ireland, Europe, Australia, Japan and Canada. Wherever they play, Kerr and Fagan make new friends and fans, as their love of live performance is tangible and affirming.

Consistently great live shows and five highly respected albums, plus their recent collaborations with Robert Harbron and The Melrose Quartet, have cemented their reputation as one of the classiest acts in acoustic music.

Special guests: Margaret & Bob Fagan!

Watch this YouTube clip of Nancy & James performing at the Shrewsbury Folk Festival in 2010.

Here is a YouTube clip of James performing the Redgum hit 'The Long Run' in Humph Hall with the rest of 'The Fagans' in 2011.
