Known for their genre-blurring creativity, The Unthanks premiere their dream-like winter fantasia – embracing both the dark and the light in the most ritualistic of seasons – moving in and out of focus, a hymnal to our shared winter experience. Echoes of winter tunes known throughout the western world mix with the traditional and the newly written, all passed with great care and love through The Unthanks filter.
Using the traditional music of the North East of England as a starting point, the influence of everyone from Miles Davis to Steve Reich and Sufjan Stevens makes The Unthanks a unique band, earning them a Mercury Music Prize nomination and international acclaim along the way.
The Unthanks make music cutting edge enough to be BBC 6Music regulars, but can equally be found on Radios 2, 3 and 4, reframing history and drawing together the worlds of folk, jazz, orchestral, electronic and rock music.
