Post Description

Folk. Een absoluut juweeltje. Mijn tante tipte mij hierover.

The Eliza Carthy Trio’s ‘Conversations We’ve Had Before’, on which David Delarre and Saul Rose join Eliza, is “one of the best traditional folk releases of the year so far…an enigmatic and compelling album”.

The album is the culmination of almost thirty years of playing together with Saul, and us wanting to push ourselves to learning new material and trying new things, rather than, as David put it, “doing all our old sh**”!

Saul and I have loved playing with David over the years - firstly for me with the Gift band, then in Wayward, and we are delighted and honoured that he agreed to bring his considerable talents to bear in this trio.

The three of us have all brought different skills and material to this album, and it wouldn’t be the same with any one of us removed from the equation.

The Conversations referred to in the title reflect just how long it’s taken for us to find the perfect balance and get this done, but we found it…and here it is.

This album is dedicated to Paul Sartin, a dear friend much missed.
