Thread Name: Jim Moray tour
Subject: Jim Moray Leicester 14 March
Jim Moray, supported by Kate Denny, will be playing at the Musician in Leicester on Wednesday 14 March.

Jim needs little introduction. From his debut, BBC Folk Award-winning album in 2003, Sweet England, through Jim Moray (2006), Low Culture (2008: fRoots Critics Poll Best Album Award-winner and Mojo Folk Album of the Year) and In Modern History (2010) Jim has produced a body of work second to none. Now with his fifth studio album Skulk available on bandcamp now (http://jimmoray.bandcamp.com/) ahead of a full release in April he has cemented his place as one of the most important and innovative voices of the contemporary folk scene.

Here's a video of him doing something a little different...

Kate Denny made her name with The Kittiwakes, whose album Lofoten Calling was praised by fRoots ("impressive and uniquely compelling", R2 magazine ("inventive and thoroughly magical") and the BBC ("bright and highly original"). Now a solo artist, she will be releasing her debut album Closer To Home later this year and will be playing songs from it and The Kittiwakes back catalogue.

Here are The Kittiwakes doing "Lofoten Calling"

Tickets are £10 from The Musician or wegottickets
