Miranda Sykes, the acclaimed singer and bassist with Show of Hands, is returning to her roots with a new solo show.

After a career spanning over 20 years, during which time she has played with many of the top musicians and singers within the folk world, she will be touring as she started out: One woman, one bass, and one guitar.

Borrowed Places is her debut solo album and draws its inspiration primarily from the songs and landscape of her native Lincolnshire but seen through the eyes of someone who has lived away for many years. The themes are not specific; the land changes, it grows, it shrinks, it adapts and it resists but most of all it lives and breathes.

With her sensational voice, and accompanying herself, Miranda interprets the soul of the land and takes her audience on a journey that resonates with us all, wherever we live, and it is one you won’t want to miss.

Miranda Sykes will be playing the Devoran Acoustic Sessions at Devoran Village Hall on Friday, September, 15 from 7.30pm.

Tickets cost £12.50 from 01872 262466 or hallforcornwall.co.uk
