Tarren + Maddie Morris

Part of Rising Stars

This event has passed.

A dream double-bill of contemporary folk maestros, each with their own highly original sound.


Maddie Morris’s bold, insightful and refreshingly unique song writing weaves stories out of contemporary experience. Described by Jim Moray as “leading the next generation of socially conscious songwriters”, Maddie sings beautifully of the marginalised and the different. Whether turning a centuries-old ballad on its head or writing something new, this is infectiously, subversively vital music. Passionately political, yet gently understated, it deftly treads the path between art and activism.

“Morris is not simply a fine singer-songwriter…[but] a wonderful interpreter of songs, too.” Tradfolk

New-folk ambassadors, Tarren, celebrate the launch of their second album, Outside Time with a set of beautifully crafted, fresh Folk music. Sid Goldsmith, Alex Garden and Danny Pedler incorporate minimalist musical forms into material inspired by the traditional canon, creating gorgeously woven themes that have the pulse of traditional dance at its heart.
