Post Description

Folk, singer, traditional folk.

This album was performed and recorded live in the room in February 2023, in the village of Yaxham, Norfolk. Additional Harmonium drones were recorded afterwards in Bristol. The songs and tunes are all traditional; recalled, arranged and extemporised upon by Nick Hart & Tom Moore.

Forget the title. Whatever these two turn their hands to turns to gold. An exceptional album from two musicians at the absolute top of their game.

What do you get when you mix one of the greatest modern interpreters of folk song with one of this country’s finest, most innovative instrumentalists? What if you added a couple of dashes of Morris, a squeeze or two of Playford’s Dancing Master, and a couple of deep cuts from the repertoires of Carthy and Kirkpatrick? If you reached for your palette, what colour would you make? 

Nick Hart and Tom Moore have made The Colour of Amber, an album that is, simply, staggering in its vibrancy.
