Roman Candle is delighted to welcome Sam Grassie with special guest Caitlin Gilligan to Telford's Warehouse, Chester on Sunday, 30th March.It is free entry with a 'pass around' at the end of the evening.
SAM GRASSIE
Traversing both traditional and contemporary folk music, Scottish-born, London-based fingerstyle guitarist and songwriter Sam Grassie has been making a name for himself on the indie circuit as both a captivating player and potent songwriter. While such tenacity on the acoustic guitar owes much to the playing of Jansch et al, his debut EP Sandwood — a flurry of woodwind, sax, drones, and double bass — carves out a sound of his very own. The record has been championed by the BBC, NTS Radio, KLOF Radio, Wilco Band, Shindig Mag and Clash Music, leading to UK tours supporting Daisy Rickman, Gently Tender, Naima Bock, and The Babe Rainbow. Following a spring residency at Broadside Hacks MOTH Club Grassie was booked to perform at Latitude’s "In the Woods" and Green Man’s Walled Garden Stage. 2025 will see the release of his first album, where alongside original material he marries celtic melodies with the rhythms of desert blues.
CAITLIN GILLIGAN
Scottish folk musician Caitlin Gilligan hails from the rolling hills of rural Galloway. Though now based in Liverpool, her songs still echo the wildness of her youth. Weaving age-old folk songs into sets of bare-boned and poetically-crafted originals, she demonstrates refreshing insight whilst simultaneously summoning the voices of times gone by. She draws much inspiration from folk giants such as Anne Briggs, Nick Drake and Lankum as well as traditional vocal music of Scotland, Ireland and America.
