Folk Duo: Katie Kirk & Rick Williams

A quality evening of refined, timeless ballads.

Hailing from the Mounts Bay area of W.Cornwall, vocalist Katie Kirk and guitarist Rick Williams are a highly treasured act on the Cornish folk circuit, playing to seated, ticket audiences in folk clubs, theatres, village halls and festivals up and down the County. Reminiscent of the sixties folk clubs, the duo present carefully sculpted poetic songs which transport the listener; the perfect antidote to commercial modern life.

“Pure love of music shines through in Rick’s delicate, understated guitar accompaniments and Kate’s singing is bewitching.” … Geoff Lakeman.

“Utterly captivating. Each thoughtfully reimagined ballad is like its own world, painted with exquisite vocals and guitar. ” … Tommie Black-Roff, TEYR

“Katie Kirk’s warm, earthy voice comes with a personality and onstage presence to match, while master guitarist Rick Williams supplies an elegant underpinning. They’re a joy to watch and hear.” … Sarah McQuaid.

“Katie is one of the great “undiscovered” talents of the UK folk and acoustic scene. With exceptionally sympathetic accompaniment from Rick she delivers riveting vocal performances. They deserve a much wider audience.” … Geoff Lakeman.
