Suntrap launched their album, Northern Lights, at TwickFolk in September 2019. Since then, they have used their lockdown time to write some new songs and to learn some carefully selected cover songs. So a mixture of old and new music is to be expected this evening.
Quotes about the Northern Lights album:
“Suntrap manage to blur the lines between sublime music and dreams. The lines between the fantastical and the possible are likewise blurred. This album is pure indulgence” Catherine Hume for Shire Folk
“Full of intelligent original songs, this comeback album is an immensely satisfying listen. The ‘in the round’ style ensures the supple vocal harmonies are to the fore” Keith Ames, Tom Short and Clive Somerville for The Musician.
