The best folk and acoustic music from Britain and beyond.
This week, Mark speaks to top Scottish musicians Lauren MacColl and Rachel Newton.
Their new duo, Heal & Harrow, pays tribute to innocent women who were accused of being witches.
Nearly 3000 women were murdered in the wake of Scotland's 1563 Witchcraft Act. Often they were just healers, midwives or herbalists and deemed different in some cruel way. Lauren and Rachel's beautiful music sets out to reframe what happened.
