Sam Pirt & Gary Hammond both have extensive backgrounds in music - having been part of and performed alongside legendary acts such as The Beautiful South, Nina Simone, The Dubliners & Sharon Shannon, their playing is still very much in high demand.
One plays a mind-boggling array of exotic percussion; the other drives the music with accordion, French Canadian foot percussion and dancing.
Their distinctive virtuosity is always tempered by a sense of fun and humour. A highly entertaining duo, blending world and folk music, The Hut People’s freewheeling approach leads to engaging and often hilarious shows!
