The Demon Barbers XL

‘Disco At The Tavern’ Tour

Winners of ‘Best Live Act’ @ BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards

Part gig, part dance show, The Demon Barbers bring a new repertoire, extra band members and a modern twist to their multi-award winning Roadshow. 

Since winning ‘Best Live Act’ at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards The Demon Barbers have been immersed in the development of their Folk & Hip Hop Dance Extravaganza ‘The Lock In’. Following a number of successful UK tours, including high profile shows at Glastonbury Festival and 5 star reviews for their 2 week run at Edinburgh Fringe, The Demon Barbers now bring some of the UK’s most exciting young Clog, Sword, Hip Hop & Break dancers onto the concert stage to create the live folk music & dance spectacular of the year!

The XL show features new material from their latest album ‘Disco At The Tavern’, a collaboration with Grammy & Emmy Award winners Donal Hodgson and Kipper, best known for their work with Sting. 

This really is a mind blowing album with so much good stuff. It has to be an award-winner this time next year. R2 Magazine *****

KATHRYN ROBERTS & SEAN LAKEMAN

DUOS COME AND DUOS GO... AND SOME NURTURE AND FINE TUNE THEIR ART AND WATCH IT GROW INTO SOMETHING TOTALLY ORIGINAL, CAPTIVATING AND AWARD-WINNING. 

BONDED BY AN UNSEEN ALCHEMY, KATHRYN ROBERTS AND SEAN LAKEMAN HAVE ENTWINED THEIR PROFESSIONAL AND PERSONAL RELATIONSHIP INTO AN ENVIABLE CLASS ACT OF IMAGINATIVE SONGWRITING AND MUSICIANSHIP.

THE DARTMOOR-BASED HUSBAND AND WIFE HAVE TWICE WON THE COVETED BEST DUO TITLE AT THE BBC RADIO 2 FOLK AWARDS (2016 & 2013), CONSISTENTLY DELIVERING ASSURED, DISTINCTIVE PERFORMANCES WHETHER LIVE OR RECORDED. OVER TWO DECADES OF PERFORMANCE THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN TRAPPED IN A GROOVE – ALWAYS BOLD AND INNOVATIVE, MIXING TRADITIONAL SONG ARRANGEMENTS WITH  THEIR SELF-PENNED MATERIAL WHICH REELS FROM THE BITTER TO THE SWEET, THE WRY TO THE SAD, THE POLITICAL TO THE PASSIVE.

 THE COUPLE’S INTIMACY AND STRENGTH OF PASSION ON STAGE HAVE WON THEM MANY FANS AND AN ENVIABLE REPUTATION AS ‘SONGWRITERS PAR EXCELLENCE’- (FROOTS),  WHOSE GREATLY VARIED ORIGINAL SONGS COVER SUCH SUBJECTS AS WICKED MERMAIDS, NORWEGIAN LEGENDS, AND A LONELY WHALE. 

WITH A STORY THAT INCLUDES OVER 20 YEARS OF MUSIC MAKING WITH THE LIKES OF SETH LAKEMAN, CARA DILLON, LEVELLERS, FOTHERINGAY, KATE RUSBY AND SHOW OF HANDS, KATHRYN ROBERTS AND SEAN LAKEMAN HAVE CONSOLIDATED THEMSELVES AS PILLARS OF MODERN BRITISH FOLK.
