We talk to English folk trio Moore Moss Rutter about their new album III, how they as musicians as well as their sound has evolved since they formed and more. They are touring in November and then they plan to spend some creative time together over winter…

III is a folk album played with the inventiveness of jazz and the control of chamber music. It is suffused with pastoral light but anchored in earthy realism, unshowy but technically innovative, driven by emotion but never sentimental.

Seven projects will create new music rooted in the English folk music tradition following the latest round of funding awards by England’s national development agency for the folk arts. Including Spiro’s Alex Vann, Emily Mae Winters and more.

The second in our new Folk Show featuring new music from Jack Rutter, Georgia Lewis, Cormac Begley, Dempsey Broughton, John Smith, Lal & Mike Waterson & more. You Folk Music Bread & Butter.

Moore Moss Rutter show an unfaltering sense of artistic unity on their latest album that sports a clarity and presence that puts many other modern studio productions to shame.

Esteesee – Along the Coleridge Way is a new folk music project featuring BBC Folk Award nominee Ange Hardy along with Steve Knightley, Patsy Reid, Lukas Drinkwater, Archie Churchill-Moss, Jonny Dyer and more.

In a new project titled Beyond The Marches / Dros y Ffin, some of our finest contemporary folk musicians will be exploring and celebrating in the shared history and culture of two nations, England and Wales.
