GAVIN FAIRHALL LEVER are a stunning explosion of colour in the wild and unruly garden of theLondon folk scene. A tangle of roots from Northern Ireland, Cornwall and Norfolk gives exuberantlife to a truly contemporary folk music, full of thorns and flowers. The trio bring together theexhilarating, joyful tumble of Celtic trad, a melodic warmth, vibrant rhythmic invention, and the subtleexpressivity of jazz harmony. Tunes unfold like stories, with dynamic and textured arrangementskeeping the pages turning, from chapters of luminous stillness into passages of unstoppable drive.All performed with a compelling combination of fire, precision and mongrel bite.
