“These pioneers of folk bring a whole lot of professional awesomeness to the table with The Sandy Denny Project – covering some of my mum’s best work and doing an outstanding job of keeping her flame alive, these six highly talented musicians bring their creative musical powers together to celebrate Sandy’s genius with new shine and brilliance!”
(Georgia Rose Lucas – Sandy Denny’s Daughter)
Fotheringay MkII members Sally Barker (The Poozies, BBCTV?s The Voice) and guitarist PJ Wright (TradArrr, The Dylan Project) are joined by frequent Fairport Convention guest Anna Ryder, multi-instrumentalist Marion Fleetwood (voice, fiddles guitars) and the rhythm section of Mat Davies and drummer Mark Stevens from folk-rock legends Little Johnny England to form The Sandy Denny Project.
Sandy Denny’s remarkable writing is approached not as a tribute band, slavishly copying the records, but as a tribute in its best sense – an interpretation of Sandy’s wonderful work.
With every year, Sandy’s reputation continues to grow in stature as a songwriter and interpreter of traditional material, and the six musicians in the band who share an impressive folk rock pedigree are each at the very top of their musical game.
This is going to sound mighty BIG in our new church venue (free on site parking after 6pm and free on road parking after 6pm too!).
