Nominated in the 2009 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, the
Faustus truimvirate
are three of the leading lights of their generation:
Saul Rose (Waterson; Carthy,
Whapweazel), Benji Kirkpatrick (Seth
Lakeman Band, Bellowhead) and Paul
Sartin (Bellowhead, Belshazzar’s
Feast).
They have a plethora of experience between them, brought together here in a
virtuosic display of musicianship and testosterone.
Rooted deeply in the English tradition, in 2007 they
received a
75th Anniversary Award from the English Folk Dance and Song
Society.
‘Frill-free folk music, superbly and tastefully performed…
a folk essential’ **** Sunday Times
