Lineup and details for Opus Acoustics - Mary Hampton Band and The Big Eyes Family Players on Sunday 12th February 2012

Right so i know this isn't a Thursday, but we simply couldn't miss the opportunity to put this one on.


****
MARY HAMPTON BAND
****
Mary has been propelled into the limelight after several years fine-tuning her exquisitely fragile vocals and incisive song-writing. Her fascination with folks forgotten songs takes the dark tales of history and creates arrangements that make them shine in a ravishing new light.

Her debut album My Mothers Children received unanimous praise, making Mojos top ten folk albums of the year.

THE BIG EYES FAMILY PLAYERS
****

Also on the bill, is well known Sheffield favorite's The Big Eyes Family Players. Playing a blend of experimental chamber folk-pop music its been a while since we ve had them on, but if last time was anything to go on then it is a must see.
With release collaborating with folk such as James Yorkston, members of A Hawk and A Hacksaw, Rachel's and more, on a variety of high profile labels, 'TBEFP' have been pushing forward original and inspiring sounds for a decade or so.
