We did a concert with Lydia and Will last weekend. We're with them and Will Hampson & Bryony Griffith this Saturday at Shepley, (Concert in the CoachHouse) Lydia's interesting, she doesn't want to be a headliner and yet, she's a really good and skillful traditional singer. Something of a rarity among the current hatchlings. Matt, that's an interesting point, there are several 'older' acts who are 'new' to the festival/club circuit so are, technically 'young' acts. Many of these can knock their juniors into a cocked-hat when it comes to stagecraft. Watch out for Wendy Arrowsmith or The Bailey Sisters for example.
