May 25 / 7:45 pm – 10:30 pm
J P Worsfold is a writer of original contemporary folk songs, often inspired by his life working as a ranger in the Lake District Fells. His songs are emotional, reflective, contemplative. With a subtle blend of rich vocal harmony, sweeping string arrangements and heartfelt piano. J P Worsfold and the Band of Gold recreate two albums worth of original material, with spellbinding songs and performances that leave audiences feeling genuinely moved by a truly magical event.
“J P Worsfold has a bittersweet slow-pooling melancholy that echoes with and in our current time.” – Robert Macfarlane, award winning natural history author and filmmaker.
“J P Worsfold takes the finest elements of the English folk tradition and revamps it with his own deeply emotive modern style. This is a songwriter that is going from strength to strength. His new album should appeal to fans of Nick Drake, Gregory Alan Isakov, John Martyn, Ray La Montagne, and Richard Thompson.” – Tom Hilton, Aldora Britain Records.
