Event information
Coven is the collective of three of the British folk scene’s finest, most formidable and forthright female acts; the exquisitely harmonic songwriting duo and BBC 6 Music favourites O’Hooley & Tidow, the enchanting BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Finalists Lady Maisery and the irrepressible Leicester songwriter, activist and performer Grace Petrie. In 2014, Belinda O’Hooley, Heidi Tidow, Rowan Rheingans, Hannah James, Hazel Askew and Grace Petrie got together to celebrate International Women’s Day in March with a series of three concerts. Since then, the tour has extended year on year with 2017 seeing them release ‘Unholy Choir’; an EP of thesongs that the group has collaborated on. Experience these thought provoking, heartfelt, entertaining and enthralling women performing individually and collectively on one stage.
O’Hooley & Tidow: ’Defiant, robust, political, northern, poetical folk music for the times we live in.’ Independent
‘Lady Maisery are women with ideas, purpose and urgency. They create powerful, enthralling work.’ Songlines
Grace Petrie: ‘A powerful new songwriting voice.’ Guardian
