Testimonials

"I discovered the Sedbuskers in a showcase evening at Royston Folk Club May 2017. I was instantly transported by their skilled arrangements and witty lyrics. Ian performs with an energetic vitality, complimented by Sue's beautiful transcendent vocals and haunting recorder. There is an array of musicians to which Sedbuskers remind me of including Pentangle and Jethro Tull, but ultimnately they have their own individual style mixing folk and rock characteristics."

- Hannah Thomas, cellist of Solasta

"We just wanted to thank you enormously for your hard work last week at our wedding. It was really lovely to hear you play. Such great fun and amazing to have a band with that versatility!"

- Alison & Simon

"The world watched the drama unfurl with bated breath... and hoped. Ian's song (Cave of..) encapsulates the emotion of a truly unforgettable human story. Well done."

- Tony Nyland (songwriter)

"Sedbuskers recently performed their “Sue Sings Sandy Denny” set, a fine two-piece tribute act to the great, late, former Fairport Convention singer, that was well-received at Baldock Folk Club with songs ranging from the classics - the sublime “Who Knows Where The Time Goes?” - a frenetic version of “Matty Groves”- to the epic, the moving “Banks Of The Nile”. They also perform lesser-known SD songs such as the haunting “Late November”, apparently inspired by dreams and images following the tragic road accident that took the life of Fairport’s original drummer plus Richard Thompson’s girlfriend. This act from Sedbuskers is highly recommended to anyone who is moved by the music, singing and lyrics of the great Miss Denny."

- Greg Rose, Co-organiser, Baldock Folk Club, May 2019
