We are very pleased to be bringing the excellent Seth Lakeman back to Bedford for the first time in over a decade, when he last made an appearance for us at The Corn Exchange, way back in 2013. The Westcountry folk singer and multi-instrumentalist is celebrating the 20th Anniversary of his album Kitty Jay and comes to us as part of a super-intimate run of dates this December.
Seth was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2005 for Kitty Jay. His thrilling solo performance of the eponymous title track on live television won him unanimous praise and started him on an incredible solo journey which has included record deals, 11 album releases (including 6 Top 40), BBC Radio 2 playlisted singles, a clutch of awards and touring all over the world.
He was delighted to be asked in late 2022 to record on Van Morrison’s new album ‘Moving On Skiffle’ which was released in 2023 and he also collaborated with Public Service Broadcasting that year. He has previously worked and toured extensively with Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin) with his band the Sensational Space Shifters.
Seth released his latest and 11th studio album Make Your Mark in November 2021 and in 2023 Seth released the ten-track album ‘The Somerset Sessions’ which features original, unreleased session recordings with Seth featuring Ethan Johns and other guest musicians in Frome. In between shows this year Seth has been writing and recording new music.
