End of the Day

British & Cajun acoustic music duo.

End of the Day are: Nathan Sanders – twelve-string guitar, melodeon, Cajun accordion & vocals and Mark Stephenson - violin and cello. This highly individual Plymouth-based folk roots duo boast not only their own unique blend of British acoustic and Cajun music but also a unique sound in the combination of their instrumentation.

Although the emphasis of End of the Day’s British set is on England, their varied collection of songs is interspersed with exuberant jigs and reels from Scotland, the Shetland Isles, Ireland and the occasional folk tune from Sweden, Poland and France, adding a European flavour to their sound.

This set includes (some lesser known) songs by an eclectic variety of contemporary British artists in a range of musical styles. “All in their essence”, say Nathan and Mark …..”the folk music of our modern times!”

Their British set is completed with some of Nathan’s own songs which incorporate arrangements on twelve string guitar and cello/or violin.

A lively and interesting twist in End of the Day’s performance is a rousing Cajun set, consisting of two-steps and waltzes on Cajun accordion (single-row melodeon) and violin, accompanied by traditional French lyrics, to really get your feet tapping.

End of the Day’s music is best suited to intimate settings where the duo are happiest performing without amplification. However, they can access a PA if necessary and are available for pub gigs, festivals, clubs, community events, weddings and ‘Bals de Maison’ (house parties). Other events will also be considered.
