THE next concert in Wiveliscombe’s Silver Street Sessions series will be on Saturday, June 4 with a return visit from Quicksilver.
This duo comprising Hilary Spencer and Grant Baynham, are two of the country's most popular folk musicians.
Grant on Hilary: “Hilary has one of the most staggering voices in British acoustic music. Most folk fans will know it well from her work with top trio Artisan. If you haven’t yet heard her live, then the CDs will be, firstly, a quite-possibly-life-changing treat and, secondly, a demonstration of her breath-taking range of tone and mood. And now I get to play and write for her.”
Hilary on Grant: “After four years on BBC1’s That’s Life! Grant became a household name. He is a formidable songwriter and has an energy and enthusiasm which create a high-powered performance of material from virtually every genre you can imagine. He’s also one of the funniest people I have ever met. Is it possible to be formidable and hilarious at the same time? With Grant anything is possible”
