An end to the humidity and return of the sun and clear blue skies with a high of 30 degrees is forecast for Friday - perfect conditions for a spot of Crooked Weather in the Dome Room’s garden bar.
The indie duo’s sound meets world music and traditional British folk,
says Bob Dylan biographer Sid Griffin.
“Think a contemporary Incredible String Band with a 21st century mindset.”
The line between folk and rock music seems to be increasingly blurred these days. Blurring it further is Crooked Weather whose songs are steeped in the folk revival of the late 1960s but have a raw, modern edge.
The Cruel and the Kind from the act’s album Quantum Mango has a faint whiff of Nick Cave with cabin fever while the flitting guitar notes of Dragonfly and matched with Donovan-ish vocals.
