Winter Wilson: Home

Known as “one of the hardest-working duos on the UK folk scene” (Mike Harding, 2018), Sleaford's own Winter Wilson have entranced audiences worldwide since becoming full-time musicians in 2012. In recent years they have completed multiple tours of Australia, New Zealand and Canada, as well as the UK and Europe.

Kip Winter (vocals, flute, piano accordion, guitar) “simply has a voice to die for” (John Roffee, Maverick Magazine), whilst Dave Wilson (vocals, guitar, banjo) is now widely recognised as one of the UK’s very best contemporary folk and blues songwriters, with his songs sung in folk clubs the world over.

With ten critically-acclaimed albums in their back-catalogue, the couple have recently released number eleven, “Home”. As ever, there are songs of love, loss and social comment, but the tone is ultimately uplifting. And also as ever, there are the stunning harmonies and superb musicianship that the couple’s many fans have come to love. In live performance Kip & Dave present their sublime music with passion, punctuated between the songs with real natural humour. Nothing is off limits – they are a couple in life as well as on stage, and it shows.

Early reviews for “Home”

“An important addition to the repertoire of British duo Kip Winter and Dave Wilson.... “Home” shows
that Winter Wilson have grown stronger than ever.... By any standard, “Home” is among the best folk
CDs of the last 12 months.” 

Tony Smith Trad & Now Magazine (Australia)

“Twelve tracks of absolute gorgeousness!....They are absolutely at the top of their game.”

Tim Walker, BBC Radio Lincolnshire

“This is a very fine suite of new songs, often rooted in the lives of real people dealing with near
impossible situations and delivered beautifully by one of our finest musical partnerships..... a cracking
album which can only enhance Winter Wilson's reputation as one of the stand-out musical
partnerships on the folk scene”
