Morris & Watson performing live at Wroot Rocks

contemporary and traditional folk music

'They're fantastic' - Kate rusby

Lizzie and Dan have been playing folk music together since 2012, developing a strong musical bond and a dynamic stage show that both enthrals and delights audiences. Their blend of songs and tunes defy categorisation in an exciting combination of styles and genres. Their lyrics dive into the industrial past of their native north, while their tune sets take inspiration from many different European and American traditions.

Utilising modern technology to create a large soundscape, their show is exciting, versatile and energetic. Touring since 2015, Morris & Watson are experienced performers with a drive and determination to entertain audiences both large and small, from the grandest theatre to the most compact pub.

This exhilarating duo are guaranteed to entertain, dazzle and captivate any audience with their authentic display of rousing folk music.
