RANAGRI

'How often do you hear a sound that's completely new, which has great energy and immediately makes you want to dance? I'll be following Ranagri around, I hope they don't mind...' - Katie Derham - BBC Proms - BBC Radio 3

Ranagri is a contemporary folk band of four musicians [Dónal Rogers, Jean Kelly, Eliza Marshall, Joe Danks] who have come together to create some exciting new music. Consisting of flutes; Irish whistles; electric harp; bodhran; guitar; bouzouki and voices, Ranagri fuse celtic folk music with quality contemporary songwriting, enhanced by virtuosic instrumentals,vibrant rhythms and haunting melodies, all interlaced with vivid storytelling.

Ranagri had a busy 2015/16 with performances at Cambridge, Gate to Southwell, Wath, Stourbridge and Purbeck Folk Festivals, Birmingham Symphony Hall, Folk on the Quay and combining their love for world music, they have collaborated with top Indian Musicians at The Bhavan Centre, London – the largest Indian Music Cultural Centre outside of India - which has hosted the likes of Ravi Shankar and George Harrison.

Ranagri released and toured an album 'The Great Irish Songbook' with International singing star Tony Christie, tracing a shared Irish heritage and in August 2016, the band launched their new UK album 'Voices' to critical acclaim.

STEVE DAGLEISH

Hull-born, London-resident Steve Dagleish can definitely lay claim to Saltburn as his second home, having spent his teen years here. His father and brothers still live in the town and Steve is a frequent visitor, often dropping in to the Folk Club at the Marine.

"Utterly lovely, like an angrier Nick Drake" - Bob Fischer BBC Tees

Inspired by the craftsmanship of songwriters Neil Young, John Martyn & Nick Drake, Steve performs his original songs interspersed with interpretations of 'trad' and modern songs at folk clubs and festivals across Britain - recent highlights have seen him play to a packed Bush Hall and sell out the renowned Green Note three times.

Steve’s debut album 'Only Losers Write on Bridges' received extensive UK airplay, including support from 6 Music's Tom Robinson, and saw him record live sessions for Bob Fischer's superb BBC Tees radio show, Bob & Marj Fortune’s Folk Show on Zetland FM and many more across the country. Steve spent most of 2016 touring, and writing a second album of original songs. Steve's recent album release 'Yours for Eternity' was shortlisted for Best Album by a Male Artist by the highly respected 'FolkWords' in their 2016 review of the year.

“The essential ‘man with guitar’ album will never go out of style, it’s just that some do it so much better than others. To hear how it should be done listen to ‘Yours for Eternity’ from Steve Dagleish.” - Tim Carroll - 'FolkWords'
