Event information

After forming in March 2018, Folk/Americana duo Roswell has won Purbeck Valley Folk Festival's new artist 2018 competition, had their debut single 'Heaven Knows' selected for Fatea's Winter Showcase, and recorded their debut EP at the Roundhouse, which was released in March 2019. Jasmine and Zoë have been combining their love of intricate vocal harmonies and folk music since they met at an open mic in Ely, Cambridgeshire, and are planning an exciting 2019 - including beginning work on their first album and playing a festival in Geneva, Switzerland.

"The harmonies are tight and both Zoe Wren and Jasmine Watkiss have such a vocal range they can weave and swoop around each other in quite a breathtaking way." Tony Birch

Salt Moon are a new trio fronted by singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Maya McCourt, who plays cello, oboe, guitar and the African kora. Leading the band on cello and vocals, Maya is joined by Cameron J. Niven on guitar & vocals and Simon McIlhinney on double bass. Expect complex rhythms and enchanting themes from this bluesy folk trio.
