Dancing down the leftfield and singing in their own lilting Geordie accents, the Unthanks (formerly touring as Rachel Unthank and the Winterset) are fantastic. Mercury-nominated and admired by Radiohead, Portishead and Ben Folkd, complex influences help make their take on folk music peerless, fearless and wholeheartedly brave.
