MUSIC ZONE
Saturday April 29 Honey and the Bear Norden Farm
British folk and roots duo Honey and the Bear have a diverse range of sounds and textures, with rhythms that flow from the fast and furious to gentle ballads. Their live performances are spirited and dynamic. Conjuring stories in song, they tell tales of Suffolk folklore, courageous people they admire and their passion for nature which has been enchanting audiences up and down the country.
The multi-instrumentalist pair, comprised of songwriters Jon Hart (guitar, bass, bazouki) and Lucy Hart (guitar, ukulele, bass, banjo, mandolin, and percussion) are often joined on-stage by band guests Evan Carson (percussion) and Toby Shaer (fiddle, flute and whistles).
Together they have played at many revered venues and festivals across the UK as well as travelled across the channel for their first European tour. They supported Sam Kelly and The Lost Boys on two UK tours and opened for the Shires at world renowned Snape Malting’s Concert Hall. They returned to Snape Maltings under their own steam just two years later to perform a sold out show.
Be entertained with original song-writing and contemporary folk melodies up close.
