Traditional folk singer, musician and storyteller Sara Grey and her son, Kieron Means, perform with the utmost technical ability as well as a tenderness that radiates throughout their live shows.
A founder of the Lost Nation Band, Sara Grey is from the U.S. but has been living in Scotland and briefly in England for the last 38 years. She has always been interested in the migration of songs across the Atlantic and it was as a result of a collecting trip to Scotland in 1970 that she moved to the UK. She has been working closely with other traditional singers from Scotland and Ireland to look at the movement of Celtic songs and how they change. “… everything she does is characterised by freshness and enthusiasm … You couldn’t hear half a dozen bars and think it was somebody else … She is one of the select band of performers that still breathe life and vitality into traditional ballads …” - Vic Smith, fRoots (Folk Roots).
Kieron Means is a singer primarily of traditional songs but also of contemporary songs, as well as a guitar player of great merit. The son of Sara Grey and music journalist Andrew Means, he was born in the United States and grew up in Britain, gaining a great love of the music of both traditions as well as the contemporary scene.
