Synonymous with quality, Scold’s Bridle is established as one of the leading female duos in the country. The relaxed manner of their delivery conjures intimacy and belies the care and preparation that goes into each performance, where each set is crafted to match the audience. Exquisite harmonies are interwoven with sensitive interpretation to produce a spectrum of songs ranging from the poignant to the wistful, from ballad to rousing chorus. With stagecraft well developed and with warmth and open friendliness, interchanges and asides allow the audience to be a part of a perfectly timed and polished performance. Style, confidence and mellow maturity exude as these two introduce their material and once launched, their own enjoyment of the songs captures, enraptures and enthuses all.

Music from this show was the inspiration and foundation for the Archive Hour Show on Radio 4 entitled "The Women on the Shore" aired on 14thApril 2007.What People are Saying about Scolds Bridle
