Venue: Hyde Tavern map Address: 57 Hyde Street, Winchester, Hampshire, SO23 7DY Telephone: 01962 862592 Event: CATHERINE MACLELLAN & LUCY FARRELL - 8pm - Though they grew up half a world apart, multi-award-winning songwriters Catherine MacLellan (Prince Edward Island, Canada) and Lucy Farrell (Kent, England) connect through the quiet brilliance of their songcraft and the warm clarity of their delivery. Suspending time with their musical storytelling, Catherine and Lucy’s songs journal the characters, landscapes and situations that populate their lives and the broader world, unraveling and reweaving the threads of history and tradition with the deftness and surety that has made such notable touring and recording artists, collaborators and festival stage guests.
