St Georges Hall Bewdley
Kathryn Roberts & Sean Lakeman have long established themselves as one of British folk music’s most rewardingly enduring partnerships.
Duos come and duos go... and some nurture and fine tune their art and watch it grow into something totally original, captivating and award-winning.
Bonded by an unseen alchemy, Kathryn Roberts & Sean Lakeman have entwined their professional and personal relationship into an enviable class act of imaginative songwriting and musicianship.
The Dartmoor-based husband and wife have twice won the coveted 'Best Duo' title at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, as well as ‘Best Duo’ at the Folking.com awards and Spiral Earth awards. They consistently deliver assured, distinctive performances whether live or recorded. In three decades of performance they have never been trapped in a groove – always bold and innovative, mixing traditional song arrangements with their self-penned material which reels from the bitter to the sweet, the wry to the sad, the political to the passive.
St George's Hall is a registered charity with a simple aim: to make high-quality live performance accessible to everyone, whatever their circumstances. Thanks to support from the Arts Council's Grassroots Music Fund, we are presenting an exciting programme of live events throughout the coming year.
To help make these events as accessible as possible, our four tier pricing allows everyone to find a price point that suits their circumstances so, in addition to the STANDARD price, we will be offering a number of options: ENTRY level, PAY A BIT LESS and of course a PAY A BIT MORE IF YOU CAN option. Same show, same seats, for all ticketing levels
As a charity, all income generated through our events is reinvested in St George's Hall and used to expand our programme of activities. We hope this approach will remove financial barriers, encourage new audiences, and help even more people enjoy exceptional live performance in the heart of the community.
Please note there is a £1 service fee charge per ticket to help offset our payment costs.
