O'Hooley & Tidow with Jim Causley

A welcome return for the two dapper gentlewomen and purveyors of chamber folk, augmented by Devon folk singer incarnate Jim Causley. With their latest album, The Fragile, picking up raves from Mojo, Uncut, fRoots, R2, Songlines, the Guardian and pretty much everyone who heard it, Belinda O'Hooley and Heidi Tidow's time is now. Their irresistible blend of striking arrangements, sublime harmonies and cheeky Northern banter entrances audiences everywhere.
