Waterson:Carthy
'English Folk music is lucky to have such persuasive ambassadors' - The Sunday Times
For more than 30 years Norma Waterson and Martin Carthy have been at the forefront of the English folk scene. Joined by their daughter, singer and fiddle player, Eliza Carthy as well as honorary family member, melodeon player, Tim Van Eyken - together they form one of Britain's most successful and influential folk bands - Waterson:Carthy.
Martin Carthy's remarkable and influential career has been celebrated with an MBE and various BBC Radio 2 music awards including two (Folk Singer of the Year and Best Traditional Track) in February 2005. He is one of the most admired and best loved figures in the movement and was the recently the subject of a BBC television documentary.
Norma Waterson, also awarded an MBE for services to English Music and fellow recipient of BBC Radio 2 Awards, is one of the country's finest, most emotive singers with her wonderfully compassionate voice.
Eliza Carthy, a double Mercury music prize nominee and winner of three BBC Radio Two awards is the leading light of a new vanguard of talented young performers. She has recently been touring with Sharon Shannon and her own band The Ratcatchers.
Tim Van Eyken meanwhile is a brilliant young melodeon player, whose own band, Dr Faustus are adding to the ranks of young performers with a passion for English traditional music. |
