SUMMARY:Gigspanner at Ropery Hall
DESCRIPTION:Since his inaugural performance with the fledgling Steeleye Span in 1970\, Peter Knight has been a mainstay of the British folk scene. \nNever one to rest on his laurels\, Peter has carved a reputation as a relentlessly questing musician “as mercurial as quicksilver” (Simon Jones/fRoots)\, and it is never quite so apparent as in his work with the various Gigspanner line-ups. \nIn the wake of his departure from Steeleye Span\, Peter turned his full attention to the Gigspanner Trio and established their reputation as one of the most genuinely ground-breaking forces on the British folk scene\, inspiring Maverick magazine to write “Gigspanner are pushing at the boundaries\, and in the process are making some of the most beautiful music the genre has to offer” 5***** Maverick Magazine \nDescribed by Folk Radio UK as one of the “most quietly brilliant sets of musicians in the folk world and beyond”\, they take self-penned material along with music rooted in the British Isles and beyond\, and with the flick of a bow\, a finely chosen chord or slip of a beat\, produce richly atmospheric arrangements “with notes seemingly plucked from the stars and rhythms from the equator” (Spiral Earth). \n
