About this event
Together for 56 years now, Steeleye Span changed the face of folk music forever by taking it into the world of gold discs and international tours.
Now they return with 'Conflict', their first full studio album in over five years.
All traditional singers have sung modern and self-composed pieces alongside old songs, 'Conflict' is an album that follows in that very tradition. The album’s title was chosen as much to reflect the times we find ourselves in, but also the stretch and tear of our relationship with this planet that hosts us.
As ever – and with such a rich history to choose from – the night will offer a selection of songs from across the years and firm fan favourites.
“Don't miss them...” - The Independent
