Nominated ‘Folk Singer of the Year’ – BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards 2017
MOJO Top Ten ‘Folk Album of the Year’ 2016
‘Jim Causley and his fellow folk musicians bring it to life with real zest, his deep baritone voice soaring as he sings.’ ★★★★ The Telegraph
Join acclaimed folk musician Jim Causley in celebrating the Christmas season. Let him entertain you with lesser known songs from the West Country, medieval and secular carols from around the British Isles, and his own settings of moving Christmas poems. Tuck into mulled wine and mince pies in our cosy Carole Nash Hall as you enjoy a gurt dollop of festive fun, songs of over-indulgence, and a spot of panto too!
Since the release of his debut album in 2005, Jim Causley’s unique voice and persona have helped him become one of the most well-loved and respected figures of today’s contemporary roots and folk music scene. A prolific collaborator, Causley is hugely admired for his work with iconic groups The Devil’s Interval and Mawkin: Causley as well as playing, touring and recording alongside Waterson: Carthy, John McCusker, Eddie Reader, Graham Coxson, Shirley Collins, Michael Morpurgo, Show of Hands, Kate Rusby, David Rotheray of Beautiful South fame and many more.
If you are feeling a little dismayed with the over-commercialisation of ‘Christmas present’ then join Jim for a journey through Christmas past that will be guaranteed to get you in the festive spirit!
