“With their golden voices, fertile soundworlds and evocative influences from across Europe, the Sheffield duo’s fifth album is admirably confrontational.” The Guardian, Folk Album Of The Month (Sept 2024)


After a decade releasing celebrated albums and touring across the world, The Rheingans Sisters return to St George’s to play new music from their critically acclaimed fifth album. The visionary duo’s new show is a sonic and aesthetic development of their live work so far, creating an even more immersive musical journey for their audience. From baroque fiddle tunes to trance beats, metal-inspired arrangements of folk ballads to improvisations with phone voicenotes, Rowan and Anna continue to surprise and delight with their own unique “avant-garde trad” approach.

Influenced as ever by the past, The Rheingans Sisters’ music leans defiantly forward. Their fourth album Receiver (“*a masterpiece of modern folk music” FRUK) blended the sounds of century-old recordings of Norwegian fiddlers, songs in ancient Occitan language and true stories from the Northern Irish Civil Rights movement with future imaginings, dystopias and dreams. One of the most visionary acts on the British folk scene today, this will be an evening of warm, empathy and high creative originality.
