North Yorkshire and York based Folk Band The Fine Companions started life as a duo over a quarter of a century ago. In true folk tradition, the line-up has changed over the years, and the band is now a vibrant collective of seven, hugely talented, versatile and often multi-instrumentalist musicians; add in the wide variety of musical preferences, and you have an exciting and diverse musical experience. They clearly love playing together and sharing that joy with the audience.
Their songs and tunes are firmly rooted in the folk tradition; chronicling history and hard times, foot-tapping sea shanties, contemporary folk or life-enhancing exuberant fast jigs and reels.
Always ready for new directions and challenges, The Fine Companions often join forces with theatre companies and spoken-word artists to help create historical or mythical worlds, their music weaving through the visual stories and scenes.
