Band - Gilmore & Roberts

Twice-nominated at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, contemporary folk/acoustic duo Gilmore & Roberts combine award-winning songwriting with astounding lap-tapping guitar, fiery fiddle and their trademark harmonies to create a powerful wall of sound. Their third album, 'The Innocent Left', recorded in London with producer Julian Simmons (Guillemots, Ed Sheeran, Albert Lee), explores many and varied topics but remains consistently bound by Gilmore & Roberts' passion for stories.
Featuring an enviable all-star cast of guest musicians, including double bassist Ben Nicholls (Seth Lakeman band), drummer Tom Chapman (Urban Folk Quartet), pianist Will Foster (The Fratellis) and prodigious Georgia-based band Larkin Poe, 'The Innocent Left' encompasses elements of folk, bluegrass and rock while maintain the Yorkshire-based pair's own distinctive stylings.

Katriona Gilmore (The Albion Band) and Jamie Roberts (Kerfuffle) began working together in 2006, and have released 3 full-length albums: 'Shadows & Half Light' (2008), 'Up From The Deep' (2010) and 'The Innocent Left' (2012). All three have received much critical acclaim, leading to a tour supporting Fairport Convention and two BBC Radio 2 Folk Award nominations.
