Steve Knightley and Phil Beer are widely acknowledged as the finest acoustic roots duo in Britain. Knightley, who writes most of their inspired material, and Beer, a dazzling multi-instrumentalist, have built up a huge following which has seen them sell out London's Royal Albert Hall four times and headline at major festivals from Derby to Glastonbury.
Voted Best Duo at the 2010 BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards (as well as clinching the Best Original Song for Knightley's acclaimed "Arrogance Ignorance and Greed") the jury is still out on just what kind of music they play.
A genre defying mix of rock, roots, country, trad folk and often influenced by the music of other countries, it is played out on an array of instruments from slide guitar to fiddle, mandolin to South American cuatro.
Joined by musical chameleon, Miranda Sykes, on double bass who also adds her rich vocals to the unique Show of Hands experience. Acoustic music at its best.
