Cruel Folk, Club regulars Sean and Paul Holden, prove that ‘The English acoustic folk tradition is alive and well and this is where you'll find it'. Their material acknowledges the darker past of the tradition, and incorporates the influence of some of its most modern exponents.

The intimate ambience created by ex-Loman singer/songwriter Gus MacGregor's lyrics and delicate guitar work will make you feel you're back in the West Coast era of James Taylor. This evening, the sensitive exploration of relationships in Gus's thoughtful material is further enhanced by an acoustic bass.
