At Neston Folk & Roots Presents, we are delighted to welcome The Horsenecks. The Horsenecks are Gabrielle Macrae and Barry Southern. Based in Astoria, Oregon, they are two multi-instrumentalists who have come together from traditional music backgrounds and found a sound that weaves through layers of influence that include early Appalachian fiddle and banjo music, country, classic bluegrass and original folk.
Gabrielle's fiery fiddle style is the result of being raised in the Old Time music hotbed of Portland, OR and being exposed to the fiddle traditions of the Southeast US through years of traveling to festivals and learning from some of the greatest players in the genre. Now deep in the world of song writing, she brings together her background in traditional music and modern influences across many genres to create a catalog of songs that speak to their place in the evolving story of traditional music.
Liverpudlian Barry, a multi-instrumentalist with a rich history in both U.K. and U.S. music scenes, brings versatility and nuance — from driving three-finger banjo to nimbly flatpicked guitar — creating a dynamic backdrop for their collaborative voice.
Their latest album, “In the West” released on Tiki Parlor Records in June has received critical acclaim and reached the Folk Alliance International’s top ten folk music charts.
