Jimmy Aldridge and Sid Goldsmith are one of the finest duos to have emerged onto the British folk and acoustic scene in recent years. Their combination of outstanding vocal work, sensitive instrumentation, and a powerful social conscience has brought them widespread critical acclaim.
They have performed on the main stages of many of the UK’s music festivals, including Sidmouth, Warwick, and Broadstairs, and their music has had national radio play including the BBC Radio 2 Folk Show and the Mike Harding Folk Show.
The songs themselves are always given centre stage but they are brought to life with stunning musical arrangements and vocals. There is an integrity that shines through their performances and a common thread of political struggle, resistance, and justice.
Their critically acclaimed second album Night Hours was released in December 2016 on Fellside Recordings, and has cemented the duo’s reputation as two of the most exciting musicians and social commentators on the scene.
Jimmy Aldridge and Sid Goldsmith will be appearing on Sunday, November 12, at Dreamers Folk at The Sportsman’s Arms in Redruth. The show is at 7.30pm, and tickets cost £5 to£6. For more information and tickets go to dreamersfolk.co.uk
