Haddstock in partnership with The Brunton
Karine Polwart is a multi-award-winning Scottish songwriter, folk singer, and storyteller. Her songs evoke a richness of place, hidden histories, scientific curiosity and folklore. Trees and rocks speak. Birds flit in and out of vision. She conjures the beauty and the magic, the sorrow and complexity of the corner of her eye, with lyricism and tenderness.
This is a rare chance to enjoy Karine in intimate, conversational solo performance. Expect a clutch of new songs and wonder tales, and an evening suffused with light.
"Long established as a glorious singer, enquiring songwriter and enlightened mind" MOJO ****
"There are few songwriters sharper" Financial Times ****
"One of the finest singer-songwriter in Britain" The Guardian *****
