Lisa Knapp and Gerry Diver are a remarkable musical partnership at the forefront of contemporary folk. Lisa\u2019s spellbinding vocals and command of traditional song blend seamlessly with Gerry\u2019s acclaimed production and multi-instrumental talents. <\/p>\n

Together, they create richly textured, emotionally resonant music rooted in English and Irish traditions, layering twin fiddles, voice, percussion, autoharp, electronica and field recordings into bold, atmospheric arrangements. <\/p>\n

Their 2025 album Hinterland was praised as \u201cFolk at its most exalted\u201d by The Observer, \u201cA marvel\u201d by Mojo magazine, and \u201cUtterly haunting\u201d by Songlines. Their live shows bring the album to life with intimacy, innovation, and intensity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
