J P Worsfold Wild Returning Album Tour with support from Steve Pledger

We love a great voice here at The Folklore Rooms, and these are two of the best on the folk circuit. It’s the return of heartfelt singer-songwriter J P Worsfold.. J P and his bandmate Anne-Marie Sanderson will be performing material from his latest album, Wild Returning and from across his career.

J P Worsfold will be supported by local singer-songwriter Steve Pledger.

J P is a writer of emotional contemplative contemporary folk songs that speak of connection, joy and belonging.

With a subtle blend of rich vocal harmony, sweeping string arrangements alongside heartfelt piano and guitar.

They are songs to evoke life’s deeper meaning and to inspire connection within ourselves and the natural space around us.

You will find yourself captivated by spellbinding songs and performances that leave audiences feeling genuinely moved by a truly magical event.

“Classic rural folk, seasoned, weather-hardened, aged-like-stone folk.”

William Wolstenholme, BBC Introducing Cumbria & Lancashire

"J P Worsfold has a bittersweet slow-pooling melancholy that echoes with and in our current time."

Robert Macfarlane, Award Winning Author of Spell Songs and The Lost Words

"J P Worsfold is the traditional English folk troubadour that has been missing from the modern musical climate for far too long." Aldora Britain Records

Steve Pledger

Cast in the mold of the classic troubadour, there are inevitably shades of those who

ultimately have defined the role, and yet his blend of blistering social commentary;

stark honesty, and fearless tenderness have marked Steve out as someone unafraid

to create his own place in the singer/songwriter landscape.

2016's Somewhere Between was nominated for several awards and went on to win

Album of the Year (male artist) from FolkWords as well as the coveted Album of the

Year from FATEA Magazine. Other nominations and plaudits followed, and in 2020 a

download release of the piano-backed/spoken word version of his song The Baptist's

Father secured him Track of the Year from FATEA.

"A privilege to witness." (FATEA)

"Extraordinary!" (folking.com)

“A lyrical genius.” (Roots & Fusion)
