Maddy Prior Biography
Singer Maddy Prior was the hauntingly lovely voice of quintessential British folk-rock group Steeleye Span, channeling the ghosts of windswept maidens on the moor as the band offered a flower-power version of medieval traveling minstrels. She got her start playing in a duo with Tim Hart, and joined Span in 1969, remaining with them until the late 1990s. Prior started releasing solo albums as early as the late '70s, but became particularly productive after departing Span. An icon of the revival of traditional British folk, Prior's flowing-skirt mysticism, not to mention her formidable voice, have also proven an influence on the avant-garde folk movement of the early 2000s. In 2002, Prior once again began performing and recording with her old band.
