Pastoral folkies Leveret are set to play at Manchester’s Band on the Wall as part of their Inventions album tour. As individuals, Sam Sweeney (fiddle), Rob Harbron (concertina) and Andy Cutting (melodeon) have regularly taken home a lion’s share of BBC Folk Awards gongs, and a pair of albums to date has showcased their talent as a band seamlessly updating a traditional art form for the modern age. Their Band on the Wall show marks the start of a two-week whistle stop UK tour and offers a chance to catch them at the top of their game.
