FAUSTUS
‘Frill-free folk music, superbly and tastefully performed . . . a folk essential’
**** Sunday Times
‘A considered album of exceptional class’
***** Daily Telegraph
Nominated in the 2009 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, the Faustus triumvirate are three of the leading lights of English folk music of their generation: Saul Rose (Waterson:Carthy, Whapweazel), Benji Kirkpatrick (Seth Lakeman Band, Bellowhead) and Paul Sartin (Bellowhead, Belshazzar’s Feast)
‘A blend of energy and musicianship that establishes this trio as one of Britain's outstanding folk bands…[a] distinctive blend of subtlety and attack.’
**** The Guardian
Specialising in powerful delivery, faultless harmonies, inspired arrangements and a sprinkling of some of the bawdiest songs in the folk cannon, they are men on a mission to banish all that is pastoral and fey in the delivery of folk music. Their plethora of experience is brought together in a virtuosic display of musicianship and testosterone.
‘The concept? To rescue contemporary folk from the curse of feyness…
Bloke-folk!... Fans of Led Zep III should take a thoughtful interest.’
**** Independent On Sunday
‘[A] beautifully played set that encompasses everything that’s best in modern traditional music.’ Acoustic
