Celtic Connections proudly presents Josienne Clarke Sings the Songs of Sandy Denny
Award-winning singer, songwriter, and producer Josienne Clarke has released several EPs and studio albums, garnering plenty of acclaim along the way. As a songwriter, Clarke has been hailed as “extraordinary” by Mojo, “gently exquisite” by The Observer and “full of depth” by The Telegraph — but for this performance, she’s paying tribute to another truly great female singer/songwriter, Sandy Denny.
Denny’s flame burned bright and all too brief, but her music has stood the test of time, marking her out as one of the most influential artists in the history of British folk music. From Fairport Convention to Fotheringay to four solo albums and a wealth of posthumous releases, she is widely regarded as Britain’s finest female singer-songwriter. Here, Clarke lends her beautiful, emotive vocals to mine Denny’s rich and storied back catalogue.
