Broom Bezzums as a Trio

Many will have heard her singing on the title track of Broom Bezzums’ CD “Wine from a Mug” as well as on “The Empire Windrush” – and now Katie Doherty will be joining the Bezzums live on stage for selected gigs.

Katie is an extremely well respected singer and songwriter  from the North East of England. She was among the first in England to graduate with first class honours in Folk and Traditional music, and has since completed a masters specializing in composition. Like Karine Polwart, Bella Hardy etc. she is one of the growing number of performers inspired by the folk tradition yet creating their own material.

Katie and Andrew have worked together in various guises since 2001, so it was no suprise that when Katie’s voice was added to Broom Bezzums that the 3 part harmonies and interweaving lines created for the CD were a real hit with listeners. Early this summer the chance arose to try out the lineup  at a live gig and the result was stunning. A tour was planned there and then!

Gigs with Katie are marked on our gigs page as ‘feathuring Katie Doherty’.
