2015 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards Horizon Award for best new band of the previous 12 months went to The Rails, who will be playing at Rye Arts Festival on 12 September.
Kami Thompson is the daughter of Linda and Richard Thompson, so comes from UK folk royalty! Meanwhile her husband James Walbourne has played with the Pogues and Pretenders!
This is a must-see event for all folk fans since The Rails are leading the way in terms of their contemporary take on tradition, mixing playing their own originals with songs from the canon.
