A NIGHT of folk and bluegrass-tinged tunes are promised at the Concert Hall next month.
Multi-instrumentalist Ana Silvera is coming to Reading to celebrate her new studio album, The Fabulist.
Recorded with Mercury Prize-winning producer Gerry Diver, the album features songs based on poignant snapshots of time, which she says deftly weave poetry and melody together.
Her link up with Gerry is not the first time she has collaborated with others.
Over the past decade, Ana has teamed up with notable British contemporaries including Imogen Heap, Olivia Chaney, Jim Moray, Bill Laurance (Snarky Puppy), Maya Youssef, Aidan O’Rourke (LAU) and Alan Hampton (Fiona Apple, Andrew Bird).
And she has performed at a host of venues and festivals across the world including SXSW, Royal Opera House (UK) and Iceland Airwaves.
Most recently was featured as an official showcase artist for Folk Alliance International, Montreal.
Now, she is preparing to visit the Ding.
She will be at The Concert Hall on Wednesday, May 11. Tickets cost £16.50.
