  • Description

    Speak of the North is a song cycle about place, landscape, borderlands, identity, and belonging. Set to poems by a range of Northern poets such as the Bronte sisters, Michael Symmons Roberts, Zoe Mitchell, Tony Williams, Katrina Porteous, and Katie Hale, the cycle looks at what it means to be Northern. With songs about the Peak District, Manchester as seen from above, coal mining landscapes, an argument between Hadrian's wall and the sycamore gap tree, and some Northumbrian folk songs, Speak of the North is a sprawling journey through both the physical and imagined landscape of Northern England. - Gavin Higgins
