Trio promise whale of a time at Barney show

A CRITICALLY-acclaimed multi-instrumental acoustic trio hope to hit the right note with music lovers in Barnard Castle.
Three Cane Whale will bring their fusion music to The Witham on Saturday, April 8.
Three Cane Whale, comprising of Alex Vann, Pete Judge and Paul Bradley, combine the influences of folk, minimalism, classical and film music to produce their own unique sounds.
The trio are based in Bristol where they will warm up for their Barney gig with a performance on Thursday night.
Their eponymous debut album was chosen by BBC 6 Music’s Cerys Matthews as one of her top five modern folk albums.
Their second album Holts And Hovers was fRoots magazine editor’s choice album of 2013, one of The Observer’s “Hidden Gems Of 2013”, and one of Acoustic Guitarist magazine’s 20 essential folk albums.
The band’s third album, Palimpsest, was chosen by The Telegraph as one of the best folk music albums of 2016″ and by fRoots as one of its five-star playlist albums.
Sarah Gent, of The Witham, said: “Three Cane Whale are bringing their impressively original music to The Witham to make for a very special Saturday evening.”
