Artist Portrait

Mary Asquith

voc, g,
Folk and Jazz

Mary Asquith was known as the ‘Queen of blues and folk’ in the Manchester area during the seventies and eighties. Her only album was released on Saffron Summerfield's Mother Earth Records in 1978. BBC Radio 2's host Mike Harding was among the ones that covered the title-track of her 1978 album Closing Time, and named her 'one of the best: a great guitarist and a fine blues singer whose voice, tuned by the roll-ups and whisky she had a taste for then, was edgy but tuneful and ­ more importantly - truthful.'
