Kimberleys Live at Rosslyn Court

THE KIMBERLEYS
'Even if you think you know a song inside out you'll find something here to make you think again' - Folking.com
The Kimberleys, a husband-and-wife duo, have become recognized as authentic and original interpreters of the traditional folk repertoire. Their second album, "The Shape of A Year," has further solidified their reputation, combining distinctive voices and harmonies that evoke the spirit of the 60's and 70's folk revival while offering fresh, original arrangements. Their sound appeals to both traditional folk enthusiasts and those less familiar with the genre.
Critically acclaimed for their ability to breathe new life into well-known songs, The Kimberleys deliver performances rich in musical excellence and charismatic presence. Their work is part of a quiet revolution, reshaping traditional songs to reflect modern life, making them relevant for today's audiences.
Isobel and Jim Kimberley have an impressive background, having worked, toured, and recorded with notable artists such as The Albion Band, Andy Cutting, Cathy Lesurf, Julie Felix, Dave Swarbrick, and Gordon Giltrap. They have received accolades like the People's Choice awards from Sky Arts, named as one of the Best Folk Releases of 2024 by Folk London and were featured in the top 10 Folk Albums by The Daily Telegraph for their work under the Wolfscote name. 2025 saw them perform at Celtic Connections and Sidmouth Folk Festival.
The Kimberleys promise performances that are both beautiful and memorable, continuing to carve their place among the folk greats.WEBSITE www.thekimberleys.orgYoutube https://youtube.com/@thekimberleys5284'si=NLA5TCljY88iYMIl

Expect a small, seated, friendly, quirky, listening venue with a heart we have a tiny bar selling beer, wine, cider, gin! and hot and cold drinks -nibbly stuff and always a cake. The venue is accessible, on one level. You will be seated at tables or in rows, according to numbers in the audience. If you need to use your phone for texting or lyrics, please turn the brightness of your phone down and consider sitting near the back to minimise the impact.
Arrive at 7pm to get a seat, a drink and a chat before the concert.
The first hour of concerts is livestreamed on YouTube. You can watch it any time after 7.30 on the night of the concert via the Rosslyn Court Website. There is an exclusive second set for the audience in the room, including a Q&A with the performers. We ask you to make a donation, please, when you watch the livestream to help us to continue this service.
There is a Rosslyn Court raffle. £1 a ticket. You may win a CD or a Who Gives A Crap emergency toilet roll! WGAC donate half their profits to water charities and are plastic free. People who donate during the concert are entered into the raffle.
There is usually a floor singer and often a 2-minute community slot informing us of what happens locally. The second half starts with a Q&A and is not livestreamed. If you think of something you want to know more about in the first half, just ask! Sometimes there is another floor song.
The concerts usually finish well before 10. Except for Tim Edey because he is unstoppable. (We also run a B&B here hahaha)
If you want to view the livestream after midnight of the concert date then go to the livestream option on the website where all the old livestreams live.
Tickets are kept as affordable as we can and there are always a few cheaper and others more expensive to help us subsidise the concessionary seats.. Sometimes tickets are a little more expensive to reflect the status of the performer.
This year we are trialling an early bird ticket price to encourage people to book in advance.
