Kernow In The City

The cream of Cornwall’s vibrant music and comedy scene is once again set to storm the annual celebration of Cornish contemporary culture, Kernow in the City in the heart of London’s Shoreditch on the nearest Saturday to Goel Pyran or St Piran’s Day.

This popular event brings together the capital’s Cornish and Celtic communities, and curious Londoners alike to champion the best of Cornwall, fuelled by Skinner’s ale and pasties lovingly baked by Warren’s. Now in its ninth year, the event has previously showcased the talents of Fisherman’s Friends, Louis Eliot, Rosie Crow and Kernow King.

This year’s Kernow in the City shines the spotlight on headliners, William the Conqueror whose grunge-filtered blues and roots has been picking up praise in far-flung corners from UK festivals to Nashville ever since acclaimed singer, Ruarri Joseph revealed his erstwhile secret alter-ego.
