Josh Burnell & Francis Sladen, Heidi Beck, Sarah Jane Scouten at Penarth Acoustic Club:

Singer-songwriter, storyteller and Hammond organ donor, Joshua Burnell, grew up in various locations between France and Scotland. He now resides in York, but everyone assumes he's from Rivendell. At some point, English folk, prog, contemporary classical, and vintage pop-rock all got mixed up and everyone had a great time so he decided to make a career of it. Frances Sladen was no stranger to trad folk sessions whilst growing up in rural Essex and has been singing with Josh ever since the pair met at university in York. A true performer, Frances adds her crystalline voice to the songs as well as her emotive interpretations of melodies. Fourteen favourites formed Joshua's release, Songs From The Seasons, released on the 4th May 2018. RnR Magazine gave the album a solid 5/5 rating. "We think this is great" Mark Radcliffe BBC Radio 2. And so do we! 8 pm start.
