Chris Wood

Chris Wood
Portland Arms, The
The Irish Times heralded Chris Wood as "the renaissance man of English folk" when on his own R.U.F Records label he released The Lark Descending which included the BBC Folk Award winning song One In A Million in 2005.

He is an uncompromising writer whose music reveals his love for the un-official history of the English speaking people. With gentle intelligence he weaves the tradition with his own contemporary parables, his writing has been said to share the same timeless quality as Richard Thompson at his best.

Na Mara: Paul McNamara (guitar and vocals) and Rob Garcia (guitar and mandolin) have an ever-expanding repertoire from lively arrangements of Irish fiddle tunes to poignant songs and ballads for voice, guitar and mandolin. When they played for us in February, we were privileged to hear the first public outing of their new song Solo Por Tres Meses, so we know there will be more excellent music this evening.

Samantha Marais: New to the Club is the fresh young talent of Samantha, who delivers her exotic music, unusual imagery and anachronistic melodies with the innocence of a previous age. "Lighter than a Malteser in a flotation tank, Marais' ethereal vocals (have) weightless, simple beauty." - New Musical Express.
