About the Event

The fine talents of Lucy Ward and Cupola combine to form this vibrant new collaboration of music and song in Cupola:Ward.

Cupola (Doug Eunson, Sarah Matthews and Oli Matthews) play rich English and European songs and tunes on melodeons, hurdy gurdy, saxophones, clarinet, fiddle and viola. These three highly talented musicians and singers play in many line-ups across the English Folk Scene.  

Lucy Ward is a highly respected singer-songwriter from Derby.  She plays guitar, ukulele and concertina but considers her voice to be her first instrument.  Horizon Award for best newcomer at the 2012 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and nominated “Folk Singer of the Year” at the 2014 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.  

Cupola’s fine instrumental arrangements and vocal harmonies provide the perfect backdrop for Lucy’s songs and strong delivery – come on down to join this dynamic quartet as they launch their first album this Summer at the Derby Guildhall Theatre!!

Reviews

Brilliant musicianship, beautiful close harmonies and total love of what they do made for a superb set - you can’t get better!” Joy Toole – Artistic Director Gower Folk Festival

"Their music is wide ranging, from stunning, rich acapella harmonies to sensitively arranged tunes and songs. Cupola are very accomplished, versatile musicians and, combined with the talents of Lucy Ward, the band is charismatic and engaging on stage. Thoroughly recommended." David Francis Nailsea Folk Club.
