Harbottle & Jonas + The Wild Goose Choir
Partners in life and music, dynamic Devon based folk duo Harbottle & Jonas are one of the most exciting acts on the UK circuit today, combining a love of the richness of traditional folk with their own original and powerful songwriting. Dave and Freya have developed a distinct and compelling signature sound, blending concertina, keyboard, harmonium, cittern, stomp box, acoustic guitar and banjo with their beautiful and closely intertwined vocal harmonies.
With latest album ‘Wild Goose’ they traverse the realms of the mystical, spiritual, and supernatural. ‘They come over like a cosmic, contemporary Fairport Convention’ says Jude Rogers, The Guardian.
Recorded in their home on Dartmoor over the course of a year, this collection features uplifting arrangements, atmospheric laments, and a song about the Norse god of mischief, Loki. It’s an album of intricacy reflecting themes of family life, deep connection with nature, mind-over-matter, and mind-bending societal shifts.
The night will be opened by Freya’s ‘Wild Goose’ stunning acapella choir who will also join the duo towards the end of the gig.
