Friday 4th November, 7pm Tickets are £11/£7 in advance or £12/£8 on the night. Advance booking link here. http://www.wegottickets.com/thegooseisout Barry Coope, Jim Boyes and Lester Simpson have been amongst the finest exponents of close-harmony vocal work over the past 17 years tand have recorded a series of powerful albums in which they have covered anything from carols to songs about the devastation of the first world war, as well as collaborating with members of the Waterson-Carthy clan in that vocal supergroup Blue Murder, and working with the National Theatre on an adaptation of Michael Morpurgo's Private Peaceful. Since their first appearance in 1993, Coope Boyes and Simpson's powerful and distinctive unaccompanied singing and songwriting have taken English roots into radical new directions. Described as "quite simply the best purveyors of acappella song on these Islands", the trio's first record, Funny Old World, was the rock magazine Q's Roots Album of the Year. Subsequent solo and joint releases have led to awards and outstanding reviews – the BBC Folk Website simply listed all their albums as recommended listening. "Coope Boyes & Simpson are currently our most inspiring vocal harmony group. Few can compete live with their voices, whether singing an unaccompanied traditional song or one of their own."
