Visionary duo and winners of BBC Radio 2 Folk Award present their uniquely blended sound.
Previous winners of BBC Radio 2 Folk Award for ‘Best Original Track’ and nominees for ‘Best Band’, with their uniquely blended sound of fiddles, voices, feet, banjos, guitar, synths and the powerful bass drones of the medieval tambourin à cordes, The Rheingans Sisters are one of the most visionary acts on the British folk scene today.
The Rheingans Sisters’ last album Start Close In received enthusiastic critical acclaim, celebrated at #2 in The Guardian’s Top 10 Albums of 2024: “it’s clear that the Rheingans Sisters have made their boldest album yet”. MOJO Magazine called it “joyous” and Trad Folk described it as “experimental and brave and genuinely magical”.
