Description
After several years delighting audiences with their hugely loved wintertime project Awake Arise, the folk supergroup of Lady Maisery (Hannah James, Rowan Rheingans & Hazel Askew) and Jimmy Aldridge & Sid Goldsmith, have joined their considerable creative forces again, this time to celebrate the summer. Their highly anticipated second collaboration Wakefire: A Summer Album releases on May Day 2026 as a special double length album-book.
If the first album Awake Arise established this group as trusted makers of deep and multi-disciplinary folk, then Wakefire delves deeper into the possibilities of both an album and live show, weaving song, prose, poetry and musique concrete into a journey for the audience. At 27 tracks, Wakefire bucks the emergent trend of ephemeral shorter releases. It's a return to the long form, a double length album, befitting its reverence for the longest days of the year; an invitation to a more immersive and unfolding listening experience.
