Cold Light

Nick Wyke & Becki Driscoll

Buy album
“Cold Light” reaches into the heart of the English tradition and brings to life old tunes from the archives, alongside instrumental compositions and newly written songs. The album’s refined arrangements feature intricate subtleties that build from a simple riff to cascading rhythms, stunning harmonies and dramatic crescendos.
This is the very essence of the music; allowing the past to inspire the future.

The musical partnership of Nick Wyke & Becki Driscoll has its roots in the traditional music of South West England but explores a contemporary sound that draws on inspiration from across the globe.

Their latest album Cold Light bridges the gap between past and present with a mixture of traditional dance tunes, new compositions and self-penned songs.

Nick & Becki are expert workshop leaders as well as performers and have a number of projects on offer alongside their duo repertoire. They are also available for celebration events: weddings, house concerts and ceilidhs. Please get in touch for details!
