“One of the most distinctive traditional voices heard in some time”
Molly Evans is a lively young singer from Cheshire with a largely traditional repertoire, known for her strong voice and distinctive song settings.
Her latest project, ’Deep Time and Narrow Space’, is a collection of original songs based on the traditional folklore work of Cheshire writer Alan Garner.
In this unique exploration of words and music, Molly has adapted and recorded new settings of Garner’s collected tales, stories and poems into songs texturally and melodically inspired by the English folk song tradition.
“The tunes are highly memorable – they’re Molly’s own but one might swear they are traditional... EP of the year so far, for definite.”
