Gigspanner Big Band
Their high-energy, virtuosic performances appeal equally to traditionalists and to those looking for something more experimental.
Beginning life as a trio – with fiddle player Peter Knight being joined by percussionist Sacha Trochet and guitarist Roger Flack – the line-up has been expanded to form the Gigspanner Big Band, with acclaimed multi-instrumental duo Edgelarks (Phillip Henry and Hannah Martin – BBC Folk Awards ‘Best Duo’) and Bellowhead co-founder and melodeon player extraordinaire, John Spiers, joining the fray.
‘Their collective elan has a forceful presence unmatched in British Folk. A faultless Cavalcade.’ The Guardian
