James Kitchman (UK) and Sylvia Schmidt (DE) are a guitar-vocal duo whose original sound embraces the dynamic tension between forces of preservation and transformation. Two compelling musicians drawn together by an expansive approach to song and interpretation, they share an affinity for the Anglo-American folk songs of the Appalachian mountains. The debut album ‘As Long As Songbirds Sing’ is due for release in November 2020, and includes the track ´I Wonder As I Wander´ which was selected by BBC Radio 3 to be aired on the Christmas eve ‘Breakfast Show’, 2019.
