Salt & Sky
Fresh from their exhilarating performances at Lorient Interceltic Festival, Salt & Sky are a dynamic Cornish folk band known for their infectious energy, rich cultural roots, and irresistible sense of fun. Fiddle duo Emma Packer and Lizzie Pridmore are joined by Dan Roach on guitar and Tom Jane on percussion and melodeon, forming a powerhouse quartet that’s as joyful to watch as they are to dance to. With creativity, charm, and an obvious love for playing together, Salt & Sky bring Cornish music to life and are rapidly becoming one of the region’s favourite bands for both concerts and for dancing.
