5.30-6.30pm - Lauren Scott

Harp Haven
An hour of scintillating music for the soul, performed on lever harp by Lauren Scott. 

“Pre-eminently thoughtful and compelling, she draws sounds of deep soulfulness and will-o-the-wisp rustlings. Her Lever Harp sings sweetly and the recording is beautifully judged."  BBC Music Magazine

​LAUREN SCOTT fell in love with the harp aged four after seeing a historic lever harp in a museum in Australia.
After two years of pestering her parents she began harp lessons aged six when her family moved back to England.
Lauren studied harp at Trinity College of Music and has a busy portfolio musical career.  As an established and in
demand freelance player, she plays guest principal harp with many of the UK’s leading orchestras and chamber
groups as well as pursuing her own projects. Her harp playing has led her to performing in venues across the UK
from the Royal Albert Hall to West End shows to commercial recordings to live broadcasts on radio and TV.

7.30-9.30pm - Filkins Drift

One of the UK’s fastest rising folk groups

Filkin’s Drift combine the traditional and the contemporary through their blend of fiddle, guitar, and close vocal harmonies. They weave together folklore from their homes, Wales and Gloucestershire, in performances that are “utterly mesmerising” (Bristol 24/7). Set-up around a single microphone, Seth and Chris entertain audiences with original tunes, traditional songs, and stories of life as a musician.

The pair have toured across the British Isles and Europe. Performances include Glastonbury Festival, and the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony live on BBC1.
