TOM KITCHING AND JON LOOMES
Tom Kitching and Jon Loomes are 50% of Pilgrims´ Way, at least in terms of culpability, and perhaps as much as 70% in pure biomass. Fiddle and guitar, songs and tunes, bitter and mild. Engaging, entertaining, sometimes surreal, always compelling. Bring your duck call.
Jon Loomes released his much acclaimed solo album ´Fearful Symmetry´ in 2005, has made 2 albums with ´Heretique´, and is a member of folk award nominees ´Pilgrims´ Way´. He was once described as ´A genius´ by Zoe Ball.
Tom Kitching has racked up over 1250 performances in 11 years as a professional, playing fiddle with Gren Bartley, Gavin Davenport, Pilgrims´ Way, Albireo, and many others, most of it out of the same battered T reg Ibiza with vinyl flames. He released his solo album ´Interloper´ in 2015, winning numerous accolades, including a top ten album of the year in the Sunday Express.
