A collaboration between three of the finest English folk musicians, Leveret captures the dynamic essence of folk traditions.
The trio is composed of fiddler Sam Sweeney, accordion player Andy Cutting, and Rob Harbron on concertina.
Between them they’ve accrued a wealth of accolades with Sweeney winning the BBC Folk Awards Musician of the Year, Harbron leading the prestigious English Acoustic Collective Summer School, and Cutting winning BBC Folk’s Best Musician four times.
No two performances are alike in the world of Leveret as they play with an impressive spontaneity, relying on the musical interaction and intuition between them resulting in a uniquely prolific show.

What was remarkable was the delicacy and quality of their playing and the empathy between the three men, watching each other intently as they progressed from repeated melody lines to subtle, spontaneous variations. It was a magical set.”
