Critically acclaimed acoustic trio Whalebone who blend Celtic folk music with strands of rock, Americana and Eastern European tradition play Kingsland on Saturday, June 3m featuring their award-winning new album Mirabilia.

The band are known for using more unusual instruments alongside traditional guitars and fiddle, with five-string violin, eight-string baritone guitar, mandolin and bouzouki all featuring in their music. “We’re definitely not purists where music is concerned. We love to blend different musical flavours together” said guitarist Steve Downs, who will be joined onstage by fiddle player Sarah Ibberson and guitarist Char Watson.

Whalebone will be at the Coronation Hall in Kingsland on Saturday at 7.30pm. Tickets available from the Kingsland Post Office, :01568 709579 or online at www.ticketsource.co.uk/whalebone.
