Featuring traditional songs, folk carols, spoken word and newly written music to galvanise and brighten this darkest season.

In an unmissable collaboration, five of the English folk scene’s most inventive artists bring you Awake Arise – A Christmas Show For Our Times; celebrating the riches of our varied winter traditions and reflecting upon the hope and resilience in music and song that can bring joy to us all in the darkest season.

Awake Arise is made of two celebrated groups in the UK folk community. Award winning trio Lady Maisery have for nearly a decade produced ‘some of the most exquisite, thrilling vocal harmony work in the English folk scene’ (The Guardian).

The beguiling musical partnership of Jimmy Aldridge and Sid Goldsmith complete the powerful line-up, bringing the outstanding vocals, sensitive instrumentation and powerful social conscience that has won them widespread critical acclaim.
