Seth Lakeman is a natural and seasoned performer yet he still outdid himself, with his exceptional band. Always a delight to see the enigmatic Cormac Byrne as well. Wonderful evening all round at Union Chapel.

Full of energy, exciting and wonderful musically too

Union chapel is a great venue for music, there is no doubt. We had a fabulous meal beforehand and then amazing seats 6 rows from the front. We've seen Seth before so knew what to expect and he didn't disappoint. We'd gladly see him again and other concerts at this venue.

Engaging and exciting

This was the first time I've seen Seth live and i was not disappointed. The show was ably supported by Winter mountain who engaged with crowd well and held our attention. The main event was great, a fantastic performance both moving and engaging, with the crowd interacting and singing along. Seeing a professional musician who is so intertwined with the subjects and themes of his songs was a pleasure.

Excellent as always - a real quality performance

This is the 11th time we have seen Seth with various different lineups and solo and I seriously think his music just gets better and better. St. George’s Church is a lovely venue and has great acoustics.

Seth Lakeman grew up in a musical family and formed a folk band with his brothers Sean and Sam Lakeman. The trio released the album Three Piece Suite in 1994 before touring Portugal with the Yorkshire based singles Kathryn Roberts and Kate Rusby.

Finding that the pair worked well with the brothers, the five musicians formed a group called Equation and quickly signed to Time Warner. The bands career lasted from 1995 until 2001 and saw them produce three albums; Return to Me (1996), Hazy Daze (1998) and The Lucky Few (2000). Seth also worked on his brother’s solo album which won two awards at the 2002 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.

Seth struck out as a solo artist in 2002 with the release of the first of many excellent albums titled The Punch Bowl. Other standout records include the 2005 release Kitty Jay which saw the singer received a Mercury Music Prize nomination and the 2006 album Freedom Fields which featured the singles The White Hare and Lady Of The Sea and went gold. 2014 saw the release of his amazing Word Of Mouth album. Recorded in a church in East Cornwall, the songs tell the everyday real-life stories of the folk from the region. The stories resonate especially well due to Seth being a local lad himself. The record won Best Album in the 2014 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards.
