Metal Harvest festival in Cathedral Square, Peterborough

2015-09-02 18.24.25

In a few weeks time I am performing as part of Metal’s Harvest festival in Cathedral Square, Peterborough backed by Peterborough Take Note choir. The set is going to be John Ball, Three Acres and A Cow followed by Woodman, Spare That Tree.

I’m really looking forward to sharing the arrangements, they sound amazing with forty people singing together. We will be performing on the Sunday lunchtime during the community feast somewhere around the 2pm mark.
