Visiting the Old Ship Inn, Lowdham, on 29 September 2015 as part of their fifth UK tour, the group’s three musicians are all classically trained and mix a variety of influences including Appalachian, roots, rock, and bluegrass – a genre sometimes known as ‘newgrass’.

Harpeth Rising’s latest album, Shifted, debuted at No 1 in the Folk DJ charts in August, and its opening track I am Eve (I am the Reason) also debuted as the No 1 song on the same chart.

The album can be heard on SoundCloud at https://soundcloud.com/harpethrising/sets/shifted/s-V9unH

Their Lowdham performance at the Old Ship Inn will be their second in the village, through Warthog Promotions. Tickets are £8 via www.wegottickets.com/WarthogPromotions or 0115 966 3596.
