Four times nominated in the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and double winners of 
the Spiral Earth Awards MEGSON create a truly unique brand of folk music. 
Combining an infectious mix of heavenly vocals, lush harmonies and driving 
rhythmic guitars, MEGSON have gained a reputation not only for their arresting & 
intelligent songwriting, but also for their exquisite musicianship and northern 
humour. Comprising Debs Hanna (Vocals, Whistle, Piano Accordion) and Stu 
Hanna (Guitar, Mandola, Banjo) MEGSON have been described as as “the most 
original duo on the British folk scene” by THE GUARDIAN and as FROOTS 
Magazine puts it ‘if you don’t like the music here then you have a problem’. 
Liking to keep busy, MEGSON have recorded thirteen studio albums across their 
twenty year career gaining four & five star reviews from THE GUARDIAN, 
MOJO, THE TELEGRAPH, UNCUT, THE FINANCIAL TIMES whilst 
THE OBSERVER pronounced them ‘A force in the folk revival’. Even lockdown 
2020 couldn’t hold them back as they performed a hugely popular series of live 
stream concerts to their growing army of followers.
And during all this time, Stu even managed to be involved with other artists 
producing & recording award winning music for SHOW OF HANDS, ODETTE 
MITCHEL, LUCY WARD, FAUSTUS & THE YOUNG'UNS. 
Now they are back doing what they do best, on the road promoting a brand new 
studio album WHAT ARE WE TRYING TO SAY. Catch them if you can...
