Maddy Prior & The Carnival Band – Carols and Capers
The 40th Anniversary and Farewell Tour
For many people a firm fixture of the festive period, the combination of Steeleye Span’s Maddy Prior and The Carnival Band has offered a unique take on timeless Christmas music ever since they first came together in 1984.
The pairing resulted not only in the acclaimed album Carols & Capers and many more, but a concert experience like no other. To mark the fortieth anniversary of their artistic relationship, Maddy and The Carnival Band tour the UK in what will be not only a celebration but also a farewell, the last time they will undertake such an outing.
Together they will mix ancient and modern instruments and rich vocal harmony with a refreshing cavalier attitude and plenty of humour – putting their inimitable stamp on a range of familiar and not-so-familiar festive fare.
This guarantees to be a Christmas Party to remember – a celebration of a unique partnership.
