Nancy Kerr and the Sweet Visitor Band

Influential singer-violinist Nancy Kerr launches her eagerly anticipated solo debut, Sweet Visitor.

Already a respected interpreter of traditional material, Nancy’s emergence as a writer has drawn comparisons to William Blake in her reawakening of a radical folk mythology as a backdrop for contemporary narratives about love and conflict, migration, hardship and jubilation, and the tensions between rural and urban life.

Nancy is joined on stage by James Fagan (Cara Dillon, The James Bros, and co-winner with Nancy of the BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for Best Duo) Tom Wright (Albion band, Park Bench Social Club, Eliza Carthy), Tim Yates (Blackbeard’s Tea Party, Albion Band) and Rowan Rheingans (Lady Maisery).
