The Unthanks bring their album ‘In Winter’ to Manchester’s Albert Hall this festive season for an ethereal, magical performance which has previously sold out at the venue
Described as ‘the gold standard’ of all winter records, matched alongside ‘Frost and Fire’ by The Watersons, in a five-star review from the Times, The Unthanks In Winter is a dream-like winter fantasia, embracing both the dark and the light in the most ritualistic of seasons. Moving in and out of focus, like a memory, ‘In Winter’ is a bittersweet hymnal to our shared winter experience. It’s an extensive, completist time capsule of the season, featuring Christmas tunes known throughout the world across multiple cultures, mixed with the traditional and the newly written, all passed with great care and love through The Unthanks filter.
‘In Winter’ is a world in itself, capturing the warmth and nostalgia of the festive season, the chill and darkness of the winter months, and the reflective ritualisms of the turn of the year; the end and beginning of the circle of life.
