Pearl & The Riverman

A blend of haunting voices, acoustic guitar, banjo, fiddle and harmonica, their unmistakable sound weaves story into song, from original compositions to the songs that have inspired them.
Fresh from a summer of acclaimed performances including the Cambridge Folk Festival and the One Big Multicultural Festival Suffolk-based Amy Pearl and Ryan Harvey will be sharing their soulful music, accompanied by multi-instrumentalist Matt Kelly, with an intimate audience in this wondrous medieval setting in what will be the very first of The Lanternlight Sessions.

Becca Rose
Our second Lanternlight Session will be with the wonderfully-talented singer-songwriter Becca Rose.
Suffolk-based Becca, a familiar face (and voice) at festivals such as the Cambridge Folk Festival, Latitude and Sundown, will be bringing her heartfelt music into this 500 year old setting, a blend of folk, soul and blues, delivered with an astonishingly beautiful voice, this November. It promises to be an unforgettable evening.
Becca Rose is a Suffolk-based singer-songwriter crafting sounds rooted in folk tradition with a bluesy, soulful edge. Her poetic songs explore ancestry, identity, and the stories that shape us, woven within guitar, harmonium and her distinctive vocals. Alongside her original material, she brings a fresh, emotive twist to reimagined classics. With exciting projects of new releases on the near horizon, Becca Rose is an intimate and captivating live act not to be missed.
“There’s a natural emotional depth in her delivery that feels both intimate and expansive, as if each lyric is lived rather than performed.”
Becca will be taking to the stage at the Lanternlight Sessions in Lavenham’s historic guildhall on the 20th of November at 7pm.

There could be no better setting in which to immerse oneself in an evening of enchantment with classical guitarist, Peter Turrell.
A musician of exceptional calibre, his repertoire takes you on a musical journey that is as old as the very building he will be performing in. Spanning centuries and genres from Baroque to modern classical pieces, to original compositions, he weaves an exquisite performance with a knowledge and passion that is enthusiastically shared with his audience.
