A Folk at the Book Tree event! Described by Nanci Griffith as 'the sweetest voice in England', Edwina Hayes brings together English folk, Americana and the rich Northern singer/songwriter tradition to create a sound that’s truly her own. 

A Folk at the Book Tree event: Yvonne Lyon and Boo Hewerdine are touring their incredible collaborative album, Things Found in Books, which is couldn't be more apt for a bookshop performance! Both highly acclaimed singer-songwriters individually, Boo and Yvonne have joined together to create an album full of hope and longing, telling beautifully human stories of lives hinted at in items which have been lost and found between the pages of secondhand books. 

Paula's music is infused with Celtic lyricism and passion of her Irish Gaelic roots. She uses a range of instruments from Guitar and Bazouki, to Bodhran and Marimba, to accompany her own original material alongside folk favourites. Her performances, laced with warmth, wit, uniqueness and musicality, are "well worth seeking out" (Irish Music Magazine).

Join us for a unique collaborative event exploring Louise Beech's novels and Carrie Martin's music, with songs inspired by the books! Expect extracts and discussion of page-turning stories with characters who stay with you, combined with Carrie's stunning mix of folk, blues and prog rock influenced music.
