Double Bill: Fly Yeti Fly & Pound Sound

About

A special double bill, especially for Blue Sky Festival 2023.

The Pound Sound is a community choir that's been running at Pound Arts for the past 16 years. Made up of a friendly bunch of local people, they're led by Chris Samuel who encourages them to sing for fun and the sheer joy of singing. Come along and enjoy their broad repertoire that includes pop, folk, gospel and world harmonies – something to appeal to all tastes!
With their own unique flavour of delicate-but-distinctive folk, Fly Yeti Fly are guaranteed to put a smile on your face. Blending rich vocal harmonies with intricate guitar arrangements, mandolin and harmonica, and with a warmth of spirit that radiates from the stage, the Wiltshire-based duo weave songs and stories about connection, community and the seasons, with a sound that is reminiscent of the late-'60s folk scene. Now living on their canal boat on the Kennet & Avon, their music is heavily influenced by the ebb and flow of life on the water.
