Opening this all-acoustic evening is a prodigiously gifted multi-instrumental folk/contemporary singer and composer from Worcester, whose astonishingly ambitious and assured self-produced CD made a deep impression at Cambria Arts HQ. We tip this 20-year-old as a significant talent who deserves a high profile on the contemporary folk scene. Don't miss her.

Review
For many of us, the Festival's highlight night featured Oh Susanna and Elizabeth Ryder. This co-billing of two extraordinary voices drew a healthy audience, who were completely absorbed from start to finish - you could have heard a pin drop. Elizabeth's opening set, with John Eyre on second guitar, showcased her confident harp and guitar work, but above all her crystalline voice, on a nicely varied set of original and traditional material; she reaches for and ahieves, high register notes that most, perhaps more seasoned, performers just wouldn't risk. She's playing some prestigious folk festivals this summer, which should serve to eradicate any lingering folkpclub affectations, and with an audacious debut CD under her belt, a career on the British folk scene beckons. You can expect to see both Suzie and Elizabeth back in Tregaron next year, tour schedules permitting.
