Kate Rusby has become one of Britain's foremost music artists, whether performing songs from the country's rich music tradition or her own intuitive self-penned material.
This unmissable evening will take you from Rusby classics and old favourites to a showcase of South Yorkshire Village Carols, complete with brass quintet; a rousing Christmas celebration. Come along to hear new variations of familiar carols mostly unheard of outside her area.
"Humanity and intelligence shine from her voice, an instrument of quiet and subtle strength." - Guardian
"an utterly life affirming evening" Evening Standard
South Yorkshire has a very strong tradition of carol singing starting early November. Sunday lunchtime sees hundreds of carollers cram into various pubs in the locality to join in the unashamedly joyous singing - standing room only! At its heart, it represents an oral tradition, constantly evolving, passed down from generation to generation, with roots dating back over 200 years.
