DEBBIE ARMOUR: Ghost Songs – Exploring Revenant Ballads
Sunday 1 September
Centrala 1.15 – 2.30PM

 

SIGN UP HERE

 

Debbie Armour is one half of experimental folk duo Burd Ellen (Guardian Top Ten Folk Albums 2020 & 2022). She is a life-long singer and student of folk and traditional music and an experienced workshop leader.

In this workshop you’ll sing and learn about Revenant Ballads. Revenants are manifestations of grief occupying a third space — an ambiguous zone between this life and what is beyond. Look at what they represent using examples from British and Irish tradition and sing them as part of a group. This workshop is for everyone, even if you don’t consider yourself a “singer”.

This is a limited capacity sign up workshop. If we reach full capacity we will let you know that you have joined a waiting list.

Please note, entry to these workshops is included in the Supersonic Festival ticket – a festival ticket for the relevant day (or the full weekend) is required!
