Tim Graham and Rose Lippard

Tim Graham and Rose Lippard perform traditional British songs sourced from both text and their favourite recordings. Having met each other through a mutual friend who thought they might get along, Tim and Rose have been sharing music for the last three years and are now starting to perform together with a mutual respect for each other’s talents and a love of the music they work with. Their track ‘Lankin’ was warmly received on the Leigh Folk Festival sampler CD this year “Rosemary Lippard & Tim Graham [deliver] a superlative account of the classic ballad Long Lankin … I could almost swear I was hearing an early Eliza Carthy.” (fatea-records.co.uk)

Rose’s vocals have gained comparison to Anne Briggs and she also has been collaborating with Steven Collins (Owl Service) on his new project Country Parish Songs, listen to a track from there début E.P here

Tim and Rose have just released a new E.P which can be bought here

The magical calibre of Tim’s accomplished touch on the guitar and the natural simplicity of Rose’s archetypal ‘folk vocal’ is a rare and treasured combination” Folkwords.com

About

With guitar playing that has "shades of Bert Jansch and Martin Simpson" (Glastonbury Folk Club) and a love of the narrative traditions of the British Isles, Tim wins fans wherever his travels take him with his sensitive and honest arrangements. Since 2010 Tim has been building his identity as "one of the new generation of musicians who are breathing new life into the folk songs of Britain" (Loughton Folk Club) and has performed with some of the best young folk performers on the circuit including Gren Bartley, Gilmore & Roberts, Ewan Mclennan, Chris Sarjeant, Jackie Oates, Kate Denny, Sam Brookes and James Findlay.
As well as recording his E.P 'Tell Tale Signs' with by Paul James (Blowzabella) which is available on Bandcamp, Tim is releasing a new E.P this Autumn that demonstrates that as a guitarist and singer, an adapter and writer of songs, he is only growing in confidence and skill: demo tracks can be heard on the Soundcloud link below
