Just nominated for the National Mercury Music Prize 2005 for his song "Kitty Jay" Seth has been described as The Jamie Callum of folk rock. Raw passionate and creative. "The conviction in Lakeman's vocals and the urgency of his rhythm guitar are of a different order. The songs don't just glide smoothly by....they get their claws into you." Recommended." Froots magazine, UK
Ken Nicol is an exceptional musician. As a guitarist he is one of the most skilled and exciting playing anywhere today, as a singer, he is capable of evoking a wide range of emotions in his audience; and as a song writer he demonstrates these abilities in his clever and well, crafted material.
Ken was a member of the legendary Albion Band. In December 2002, he successfully joined forces with Steeleye Span, and has continued working with the band since; recording two albums: 'They Called Her Babylon' & 'Winter', and touring extensively through 2004 on their 35th Anniversary World Tour.

Described as anything from "the English Jeff Buckley" to "the acoustic Hendrix", all comparisons are justified because 'Harpic' (as he affectionately refers to himself) really is nothing short of a genius. When he's up on stage, there's no doubt that he's his father's son
The effect is at once intoxicating and awe-inspiring as the exasperated gasps of the audience develop into raptured wondrous applause.
