A WEST Country folk singer is all set to impress residents in Basingstoke later this month.
West Country folk singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Seth Lakeman returns to Basingstoke, performing at The Haymarket on Sunday, December 18.
Seth released his stunning new studio album Make Your Mark in November 2021. Written during his enforced 18-month off-the-road time, the album features 14 powerful, brand-new songs including the singles Higher We Aspire and title track Make Your Mark which were playlisted at BBC Radio 2.

Inspiration for the songs on his 11th studio album came from a range of subjects – from the environment to love, death and self-belief. Recorded at Middle Farm Studios in Devon and produced by Seth himself, the album was released on his own label, Honour Oak Records.
Seth Lakeman was catapulted into the forefront of the new British folk movement when he was nominated for the Mercury Music Prize in 2005 for Kitty Jay. Seth will be accompanied by Plymouth singer-songwriter Alex Hart.
