A rare opportunity to spend an evening with one of the finest fiddle players of his generation for an intimate event at St. Mary's in Hitchin where Sam will showcase some of his favourite traditional tunes as well as his own work.

 

Sam is a veteran of the mighty Bellowhead, former and inaugural artistic director of the National Youth Folk Ensemble, founder member of the acclaimed instrumental trio Leveret, and “Britain’s Premier Fiddler” (Songlines), at the forefront of the revival in English traditional music.

After taking to the road for his first totally solo tour in 2023, Sam Sweeney is embarking on another tour… just him and a fiddle for an intimate evening of solo fiddle tunes and stories.

This tour is a rare opportunity to spend an informal evening with “one of the defining fiddle players of his generation” (Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2).
