Oysters3 are the three founding members of Oysterband, John Jones, Alan Prosser and Ian Telfer, who will be performing an evening of acoustic music and not-entirely-discreet stories – an insight into their history, sometimes turbulent, often funny, with great songs from every era of a unique career.
Sam Carter released his debut album Keepsakes in 2009. He was an Emerging Artist In Residence at The Southbank Centre in London, supported Bellowhead on a UK tour, performed in the Middle East and UK with the British Council’s Shifting Sands project and won the Horizon Award for Best Newcomer at the 2010 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards. Sam’s second album The No Testament was released in August 2012, an album that saw the singer reinvent his contemporary narrative-based songwriting by infusing it with shapenote, gospel and work song influences.
