Eliza Carthy
If there is one musician who embodies the dynamism and vitality of the current English folk revival, it’s Eliza Carthy.
Beloved of staunch traditionalists and iconoclasts alike, Eliza’s music effortlessly crosses boundaries of genre and style. Whether performing a centuries-old ballad or a self-written song, her powerful, nuanced voice, fiercely beautiful fiddle-playing and mesmerizing live performances have influenced a whole generation of young musicians.
