Kathryn Williams & Neill MacColl
If you're looking for a folk/accoustic pedigree, then you can't do better than this. A supremely talented mercury prize nominee who seems to have the undiluted respect of every music journalist in the country teams up with a member of a hugely influential musical clan who also happens to be one of the UK's top session musicians and film composers... they write and record an album together. This is the story so far of Kathryn Williams and Neill MacColl.
Kathryn and Neill first met at the Daughters of Albion concert (part of the BBC's Folk Britannia season) where they had been paired to perform ‘The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face', a song which Neill's father, Ewan MacColl, wrote for his mother, Peggy Seeger. "We just clicked" recalls Kathryn; "within a few hours of first saying 'hello' to eachother, we were saying 'yeah, lets get together and make a record'... which was both strange and kind of liberating."
Their natural affinity of shines through both on the record and on stage. These two were put on Earth to play music together; hearing them play is one of life's greatest pleasures.
Kathryn Williams and Neill MacColl's first album is due out in spring 2008. www.kathrynwilliams.net
