Frankie Archer in Consett (and other parts of County Durham) | Folk on Foot

Frankie Archer brings traditional folk tunes rushing into the 21st Century. The singer, fiddle player and electronics wizard made an acclaimed appearance on Later With Jools Holland, who described her music as “astonishing”. In this episode, Frankie takes Matthew for a walk in Consett and the surrounding countryside, pausing to set up her loop pedals and perform in the lee of an abandoned crucible, the engine shed of the world’s oldest railway and in front of a spectacular view across the fields to the Newcastle skyline.

Grew up knowing Frankie. I've emigrated to Japan but wanted to reconnect with some folk music from the area - colour me pink to see Frankie's name come up on my search!
She's done so well for herself ❤
