Performance by, and conversation with, Martin Carthy & Eliza Carthy, July 2021

Chaired by Richard Pearson from Radio Scarborough this unique event will explore the musical heritage, influences and legacy of a family considered to be musical royalty within the traditional and contemporary folk world. Martin – who famously inspired Paul Simon and Bob Dylan to explore English Folk music – will talk about his life and work over the last 50 years. Eliza will also chat about her life within a musical family and her own musical ambitions within the folk world. Richard will also try to tease out through untold stories, anecdotes and reflection their thoughts of life on the road, their musical ambitions and hopes for the future. https://www.eliza-carthy.com/
