Twelfth Day are at the forefront of innovative, modern British folk music. With a fresh, open minded approach to song writing, the duo create an entirely unique sound, interweaving masterful fiddle and harp playing with beautifully harmonised vocals in stylish and dynamic arrangements.
From opposite ends of Scotland, Orcadian Catriona Price (fiddle/vocals) and Esther Swift (harp/vocals) who comes from the Scottish Borders released their highly acclaimed debut album Northern Quarter in July 2010. Twelfth Day have toured widely in the UK and Ireland and in 2009, their track ‘Fare Thee Well’ was selected by Channel 4 to be used in a short film by the makers of the hit show Skins.
In May 2012, Twelfth Day collaborated with Scots Gaelic singer Joy Dunlop to release Fiere, a critically acclaimed album of settings of poetry by Scottish women writers. Twelfth Day’s new EP, Speak From The Start is now available for download for a limited time only from here.
