Laura Wilkes and Ian Carr

Laura & Ian are two leading figures in today’s contemporary traditional music world. Their performances centre around Laura’s debut album ‘Vent’ released on Hudson Records; a deep, immaculately researched dive into ancient women’s work songs (also known as ‘Waulking’ songs) from the Outer Hebrides.

Relishing the chance to transform this material on the concert stage, and gleefully tearing into blistering high octane original compositions, their performances fly by, such is the rich variation in tempo and mood, as they tear the tunes apart, stitching them together again, teasing them into new shapes and textures with passion and humour.
