At Home with Chris Wood
Verity Sharp hosts a series of conversations and solo performances recorded by musicians at home. For this episode, it’s the turn of Kent-based singer Chris Wood.
With summer touring schedules on hold and festivals cancelled, musicians continue to look to their own four walls for inspiration. How are they coping without live audiences? And is this period of restricted movement stifling or stirring creativity? From her garage studio in Wiltshire, Verity Sharp is dialling up musicians who are rooted in global traditions, exercising their home-recording skills, and asking them to share songs that reflect how they are feeling. In this episode, Chris Wood finds solace in poetry of John Clare and is inspired by the family sofa.
Presented and produced by Verity Sharp.
