***Filkin’s Drift make their Kings Place Future Folk debut, reimagining traditional melodies through pizzicato grooves, intricate guitar tunes, and boundless improvisation.***
\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_
Filkin’s Drift‘s music captures the essence of their recent 870-mile walk of Wales’ coast, ‘weaving together a tapestry of shared experiences’ (*Songlines*). Their compositions are sophisticated yet rooted in tradition, from delicate Welsh folksongs to traditional English dance tunes, the pair blend fiddle and guitar with their ‘gorgeous close vocal harmonies’ (*Folk Radio UK*).
Seth Bye and Chris Roberts have earned widespread acclaim with extensive national airtime on BBC Radio 2, 3, 4, 6 Music, and BBC World Service. Renowned for their live performances, characterised as ‘utterly mesmerizing’ (*Bristol 24/7*) and ‘hugely entertaining’ (*RnR*), the duo have enchanted audiences across the UK including FolkEast, Warwick Folk Festival, St George’s Bristol, and Llangollen International Eisteddfod.
***This event will last approximately 2 hours, including an interval.***
