Kate Rusby






Kate Rusby sings a lot of trad British folk, arranged very tastefully (no slamming your jars of ale on the table!) but they're sensitively performed. There's something in Kate's voice that hints at melancholy, even thought she has a bright, high tone. "Under the Stars" (2004), and "Little Lights" (2001) were the 2 CDs that introduced me to Kate; if you like older LPs like the two Silly Sisters albums featuring Maddy Prior and June Tabor, I think you'd enjoy Kate.
