"Gill has a beautiful, clear soft voice which more than matches the sparse strings and rich piano that accompany it. From the first track you can tell this is an accomplished musician... I am smitten by her beautiful music." - For Folk's Sake

Since her last visit to the Green Note, fast rising contemporary singer-songwriter Gill Sandell has played Wembley Arena and the Olympics Opening Ceremony with Frank Turner, as well as touring Europe, the UK and Australia as multi-instrumentalist with Emily Barker & The Red Clay Halo.

Yet Gill is at her most potent performing her own captivating blend of delicate but lyrical modernist folk: her sweet delivery disguises a dry wit and some darkly complex, nuanced songwriting, which is making waves on the UK grassroots folk and acoustic scene. "An insightful writing style, impressive fiddle and ethereal harmonies. Beautiful and reflective." - Maverick

Tonight Gill Sandell returns to the Green Note to launch her new album Light The Boats with a headline show. She performs as a quartet with guitarist Ted Barnes (Beth Orton, Clayhill) and her fellow Red Clay Halo members, violinist Anna Jenkins and cellist Jo Silverston. Light The Boats is Gill's second solo record and features guest appearances from Adrian Crowley and Chris T-T, as well as long-term cohort Emily Barker. The album is out September 16 on Gill's own Rowan Tree Records. She'll also perform songs from her 2011 debut Tarry Awhile ("Beautiful in its simplicity, there's something really refreshing about Gill's voice" - Fatea).
