BIO

Jack Hogsden is an English folk musician finding traditional songs, ballads and tunes from rare and popular manuscript collections and archives alike. His songs are a snapshot in history; the tales of war, love, betrayal, rurality and everything in-between. His captivating storytelling is brought to life through the additions of complex, percussive, yet sympathetic finger style guitar arrangements and the classic driving mandolin tones, both of which has been continued through his family's heritage and are highly-regarded and respected across the British Isles and North America. Alongside the songs, Jack Hogsden is regarded as one of the most influential melodeon players of his generation, with an extensive knowledge of English Morris traditions and the manipulation of traditional music, as well as his skills as a composer. With over a decade of performance experience, Jack has showcased his music at the Sage Gateshead, 10 Downing Street, Sidmouth Folk Week, Cambridge Folk Festival, Celtic Connections, and performed alongside (or sometimes with) Oysterband, Eliza Carthy, Lady Maisery, Simon Care, Saul Rose, Martin Carthy, John Kirkpatrick, Jackie Oates, and many more.
