Praying for the Rain

'Uplifting folk and world music' from the acclaimed international collective

Known for their dynamic and compelling live performances, their music blends contemporary folk & roots, with singer-songwriter sensibilities and combines emotive lead vocals with beautifully crafted harmonies, melodies and rhythms, which makes their sound so unmistakable.

Their concerts are intimate in nature, with listeners drawn into a rich and intriguing tapestry of acoustic ambience and inspired musicianship. During their musical history together, they have travelled throughout Europe, Canada, Africa and the Middle East, performed at festivals such as Glastonbury, Womad and Cambridge – and at the Minack Theatre, Cornwall. They have also played at the famous Spiegeltent during the Islington International festival and at London’s South Bank as part of a world music series presented by the National Theatre.

Their current dates will feature the four original members, Domenic DeCicco, Vince DeCicco, Delagh King and Mal Darwen playing songs from a selection of all their albums and recent solo projects, as well as music from their latest release entitled, Celebrate. Expect an exhilarating night of wonderfully engaging songs.

“Celebrate, the new album – The music is, at times, both beautiful and uplifting… There is even a rather mystical feel to some tracks… Overall, this is a delightful fusion of modern folk music and a bunch of very talented musicians all coming together in perfect synergy.” Fatea magazine

“This driven musical collective… just can’t stop the potency of their music and the uncanny enchantment it spreads amongst all of us who have been fortunate enough to hear the music and follow their journey”. Max Reinhardt, BBC 3 Late Junction

“Ambient rhythms, combined with world music, fine vocals that produce atmospheric and affecting pieces to the delight of the listener. ” Hot Press magazine
