The Rheingans Sisters

The Forge
Thursday 18 September
7.45pm
Tickets: £22 (includes £4 booking fee)

The Rheingans Sisters will be in The Forge at Anvil Arts on Thursday 18 September, performing their hauntingly beautiful music.

Previous winners of BBC Radio 2's Folk Award for Best Original Track, and nominees for Best Band, their sound is a distinctive blend of fiddles, voices, feet, banjos, electric guitar, synths, and the powerful bass drones of the medieval tambourin à cordes.

The sisters' new live show is an immersive and uplifting musical journey. Taking in baroque fiddle tunes and trance beats, metal-inspired arrangements of traditional ballads, and improvisations with phone voice notes, Rowan and Anna make music like painters; revealing in bold colours the next soaring chapter in their unmistakable brand of avant-garde trad, blending ancient song and universal stories.

With their thought provoking and absorbing music, they remain one of the most visionary acts on the British folk scene today.
