Multi-award-winning folk singer Seth Lakeman will release his new album ‘A Pilgrim’s Tale’ today, February 7.
And on the very same evening, he'll be raising the rafters at the Norbury Theatre in Droitwich.
A spokesman said: "This year marks four centuries since The Mayflower ship departed the UK. The album is being released amidst a selection of UK concerts
"This stirring and beautiful record is narrated by the actor Paul McGann (Dr Who/Withnail and I/Hornblower/Luther), and features a host of guest performers including Cara Dillon, Benji Kirkpatrick, Ben Nicholls and Seth’s father Geoff Lakeman."
Seth himself said: “If you’d never heard anything about the Mayflower and the birth of the modern USA, these words and music could be your primer.”
In July 2005 Lakeman was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize for his album Kitty Jay.
On 5 February 2007 Lakeman won Singer of the Year and Best Album awards at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
