Devon Sproule – yes, you heard that correctly! Devon Sproule!!!
On Saturday 17th August we are proud to announce that top Canadian folk artist, Devon Sproule will be playing Letham Nights. If you have any sense you will buy yourself a ticket now!
Having spotted Devon on Jools in 2008 we fell in love with her music but didn’t even consider that we might be able to get her to come and play Letham Nights. And yet… Following a tour of the UK last year when she played in Dundee and Kirkcaldy, we just popped the question: ‘Devon, would you come and play for us’ and whaddaya know, her response was ‘why, yes of course!’. For a beautiful preview of what you are in for have a listen to this clip from the Cambridge Folk Festival in 2008:

Playing with Devon on the night will be fellow artist, Thomas whose delicate playing and vocal style can be viewed in this clip:
Don’t forget that the Clap and Tipple bar will be on hand to quench your thirst and soothe your tastebuds together with the Doorstep Bakery and their mobile pizza oven. Mmmm, pizza!
