music for dancing and for listening

Salt & Sky

Salt & Sky are a dynamic Cornish folk band known for their infectious energy, rich cultural roots, and irresistible sense of fun — whether on stage or in the dance hall. Fiddle duo Emma Packer and Lizzie Pridmore are joined by Dan Roach on guitar and Tom Jane on percussion and melodeon, forming a powerhouse quartet that’s as joyful to watch as they are to dance to. With creativity, charm, and an obvious love for playing together, Salt & Sky bring Cornish music to life and are rapidly becoming one of the region’s favourite bands for both concerts and for dancing.
