- Three Cane Whale
A multi-instrumental acoustic trio based in Bristol, UK, featuring members of Spiro, Get The Blessing and Scottish Dance Theatre. Three Cane Whale have been described as ‘intricate as a team of watchmakers, as spare as a mountain stream, the music encompasses both a cinematic sweep and an intimate delicacy, in which the aroma of muddy leaves and old nettles is almost tangible’ (The Observer)
Their eponymous debut album was chosen by Cerys Matthews as one of her Top Five Modern Folk Albums; second album Holts And Hovers was fRoots Editor’s Choice Album of 2013, one of The Observer’s Hidden Gems Of 2013 and one of Acoustic Guitarist magazine’s 20 Essential Folk Albums.
The band’s third album Palimpsest was recorded at Real World Studios in Wiltshire, produced by Adrian Utley and released on January 15th 2016 with artwork specially designed by Dorset’s Little Toller press and accompanied by a UK-wide, Arts Council supported album launch tour. Palimpsest was chosen by The Telegraph as one of the ‘Best Folk Music Albums Of 2016″, by fRoots as one of its 5-star Playlist Albums, and by The Guardian for its Folk World Music Playlist.
