Polly and the Minstrel are a folk duo based in Nelson. Siobhan Sweeney and Nathan Torvik have been making music together for many years now, she with the lovely voice and he with the incredibly accomplished guitar and mandolin picking. They have performed extensively together, touring N.Z. several times.
Nate started out as a pre-teen mandolin picker in a barn dance band, stomping ’round the country halls and woolsheds of Northland, kicking off a lifetime dedication to music. A versatile musician with bluegrass roots, Nate has honed his guitar and mandolin skills to a high level over countless gigs.
Siobhan’s musical roots are in her family heritage. Of Irish descent, she grew up with ‘lift the roof off’ singalongs at parties with family and friends, singing popular and folk songs from each generation, a tradition that continues on strong. Siobhan is a wordsmith and keen observer of humanity, writing folk songs for modern times.
Their WBS concert will feature Siobhan’s original songs with an extra helping of bluegrass via Nate’s guitar and mandolin flatpicking.
