Huw Williams
Huw hails from the South Wales market town of Brynmawr, and in the 90s was known for his duo with Tony (no relation) Williams.

They became widely known when their songs were covered by many other artists in Europe and the USA and their close association with the likes of Ralph McTell and Fairport Convention, both of whom championed their music.

They developed a very large fan base and toured theatres and festivals throughout the 1990s before performing one final tour in 2001.

Some of Huw’s well-known songs include ‘The Summer Before the War’, ’Rosemary’s Sister’ and ‘I can Jump Puddles’.
Foot-tapping melodies, deeply moving songs and hilarious humour -- join Huw as he recounts the story of how a woman working in the dole office accidentally changed his life, how he wrote a song about a train that he still doesn’t understand, and why £2,000 mysteriously turned up in his bank account.

Scolds Bridle
Sue Bousfield and Liz Walmisley.

One of Lancashire’s most well-known folk duos, 2025 sees them celebrate 50 years of performing together.

Since their meeting in 1975, Sue and Liz have played at many nationally known festivals, hundreds of folk clubs and concerts and recorded for national radio and television.

Known on the Fylde Coast for their appearances at the Fylde Folk Festival and many local venues, Scolds Bridle include local folk songs in their repertoire alongside traditional and modern songs; ranging from ballads to rousing chorus
