Lisa Knapp May 31, 2009

Lisa Knapp has emerged as a highly distinctive artist from the alternative folk scene. She merges a radiant style of traditional folk and self-penned song, on acoustic instruments as well as a touch of modern electronics, in uniquely beautiful arrangements.

She returns after an acclaimed performance as part of Shirley Collins’ residency and an appearance at the Sandy Denny Tribute in Queen Elizabeth Hall, for her first Southbank Centre headline show.

‘Young fiddle-player and vocalist Lisa Knapp spellbound the audience with a voice that had the clarity of a peal of bells’ (Financial Times).
