Steve Turner and Dan Sealey

Steve Turner traditional and contemporary singer, concertina accompaniment, cittern, mandolin, banjo.
Steve Turner is known as a pioneer of highly sophisticated English concertina song accompaniments, stretching the boundaries of traditional forms, with one of the best voices in the business. He is a multi-instrumentalist, who also accompanies himself on the cittern, and also plays mandolin and banjo.
Steve began his career on the Manchester, UK folk scene at the end of the ‘60s, with the Geordie band “Canny Fettle”, touring with them for eight years and making two albums with them. In 1979 he won the UK Melody Maker’s national “Stars of the 80s” competition, which persuaded him to turn professional, and for the next 12 years he toured solo, nationally and internationally, releasing four albums with Fellside Records during this period (Out Stack, Jigging One Now, Eclogue and Braiding).
After 13 years away from the folk scene he made a welcome return in 2004 performing in folk clubs and festivals, and in 2008 producing his 5th album, the highly acclaimed “Whirligig of Time” which featured UK luminaries Martin Carthy, Nancy Kerr and Miranda Sykes.

Dan Sealy
'Dan has had an incredible career. Starting his musical journey as part of 'Ocean Colour Scene' who had a double platinum selling number 1 album in 1997!
Then Dan formed 'Merrymouth' which featured Simon Fowler and multi award winning musician John McCusker. Dan went on to reform legendary Music Hall duo 'Cosmotheka' with father and original member Dave Sealey. Quite a CV!

Dan now has his own solo show he's currently touring with Live and local rural touring scheme (From the Albert Hall to the Music Hall) with great success and is due to release his first solo album in 2023.
