CONCERT: Kim Edgar
Fri 9 May 2025 7:30 PM - 9:30 PM
Ilkley Manor House, LS29 9DT
Description
Join us on 9 May for an intimate concert with Edinburgh-based pianist and songwriter Kim Edgar.
Emotion and connection are at the heart of Kim’s work as she ponders what it is to be human, creating stories told with honesty and empathy that open hearts, minds and discussions.
"Very moving, literate, allusive and expressively sung." ~ Scotland on Sunday
With five critically acclaimed solo albums, Kim has been described as "an example of everything that’s great about contemporary music" and "probably one of the best songwriters in Britain today." Her latest album, CONSEQUENCES, includes collaborations with Ron Sexsmith, Rachel Sermanni, Boo Hewerdine, and Horse McDonald.
"Strangely uplifting, despite the well-phrased, sombre lyrics... a comfort blanket for the disillusioned soul." ~ The BIG Issue
