Timeline
Rosemary "Rosie" Hardman (born 26 February 1945) is a British folk singer-songwriter, musician and performer, best known for such recordings as Lady For Today, Pride of the River, Song to the Evening Sky, and Tongue Tied.
Hardman was one of the mainstays of the Manchester folk scene in the 1960s, and performed extensively in both the UK and internationally until 1991.
Rosemary Hardman was born in and grew up in Manchester, England.
She was educated at the nearby Urmston Grammar School for Girls.
She began writing songs at the age of 13 and made her first folk club appearance in 1965, at the Manchester Sports Guild.
Over the next three years, she established herself as resident singer and organiser of a number of folk clubs.
Before turning professional as a singer in 1968, she worked at a variety of jobs in her early career, including as a horse riding instructor, assistant in a bookstore, hairdresser, and secretary for the MSG artiste booking agency.
After three years of playing amateur and semi-professional gigs on the folk scene, Hardman turned professional in December 1968.
That month she released her first album, Queen of Hearts, on the Folk Heritage label.
It contained a mixture of traditional and contemporary material.
The album was recorded live on 29 December 1968 at the Bate Hall Hotel, Macclesfield, Cheshire, UK.
Six months later she teamed up with south London guitarist Bob Axford, and they performed mainly original material.
Rosie Hardman and Bob Axford released a joint album, Second Season Came(1970), on the Trailer Records label.
This album included her most popular and covered song "Lady for Today".
In the early/mid 1970s, Hardman toured with singer/songwriter Andy Caven as her road manager/sound engineer.
They recorded a version of her song "Fiddler Man" together before Caven followed his independent career.
They released a second album together (her third) Firebird in 1971, also on the Trailer Records label.
In 1971 Hardman married Rob Ixer on 17 April.
Many of their friends from the music scene attended.
Her matron of honor was Toni Arthur (a folk singer who later became known on children's TV).
For their informal evening reception, they gathered at the Manchester Sports Guild, where Hardman had been a compere and guest artist.
In 1974, Hardman played the Cambridge Folk Festival and in 1975 she released her next album, Jerseyburger and also a cassette of a live recording – For My Part.
In 1977 she performed a series of gigs with Bristol-based guitarist Steve Payne.
In 1978, Hardman signed to the Plant Life label, with which she made three albums (see Discography).
From 1979, she toured briefly with a band which comprised Nigel Pegrum (drums), Jon Gillaspie (Keyboards), Pat Tate (guitar/vocals) and Rick Kemp (bass).
This tour was notable for its finale, in which an eagle (one of a trained pair known as Wally and Pegasus) flew over the heads of the audience to land on Hardman's arm.
Wally had a penchant for beer and at times would detour and land on the table of an unsuspecting audience member.
Hardman and Gillaspie performed together regularly as a duo over the next few years, collaborating on albums as well as gigs.
Hardman suffered from a variety of throat problems during the mid-1980s, requiring a long course of hospital treatment.
The clubs were full of secondhand smoke and she had strained her voice with inadequate sound systems.
In 1981, Hardman recorded "The Man From Brooklyn" and "Just One Time", two songs about American popular singer Barry Manilow.
She led the Birmingham branch of his British fan club.
Hardman's support for his music was controversial in some folk clubs, but she has always supported him and said that he was a major influence on her music.
In 1984, Hardman took over running the Whitesnake Fan Club for the heavy rock band of that name.
(She worked with Mel Galley, the lead guitarist of the band, for a series of gigs in 1985–86).
In 1985, Hardman co-wrote the theme music for the children's television programme Talk, Write and Read.
The programme won the Royal Television Society award for the best primary school television programme of 1986/87.
Around that time, she joined up with Isaac Guillory for a number of concerts; they would each perform solo sets and then a set together.
