Jackie Oates and Ben Murray
T027077135
Jackie Oates and Ben Murray join forces for a special one-off co-headline tour. Jackie Oates is a name synonymous with the reinvigoration of English folk music, beguiling audiences with a delicate balance of tradition and reinvention. Her mellifluous voice and imaginatively plaintive fiddle style has won her several BBC Folk Awards during a 10-year recording career that began as a member of the nascent Unthanks and has continued with five acclaimed solo albums. She has collaborated with Alasdair Roberts, Belinda O'Hooley and her brother Jim Moray on material that's ranged from traditional ballads to eerie lullabies and rich contemporary songs. Ben Murray began his career as a founding member of the group Tarras. During his time with Tarras, the band was nominated for ?Best Original Song' at the BBC Folk Awards. Ben also garnered a second nominated for the ?Horizon Award' with his long time collaborative partner Rosie Doonan, with whom he also performs as part of The Mighty Doonans. Ben can currently be seen performing as the ?Songman' in the West End production of War Horse.
