Event information

The Black Bird Collective presents RISE with band plus special guest Jessi Norgard live @ The Angel Gallery, Totnes. 8pm

PLEASE NOTE: Best to book tickets for this show as soon as possible, as the Rise with band gig we put on last year at the Angel Gallery sold out in advance.

RISE (aka Jo Beth Young) is an English songwriter whose relentlessly authentic songs and mesmeric voice cut deep into the fabric of human frailty with a visionary sound swaying hypnotically between dream folk and progressive grit; at times dark but always beautiful.

Since the release of her debut album ‘An Abandoned Orchid House’ in 2018 (under the longer moniker of Talitha RISE) she has been gathering international acclaim and support from BBC 6, BBC Introducing Devon, and the legendary ECHOES Radio in the USA who made her the number 1 album of the year.

"Just the right touch of the ethereal..Beautiful"

"A voice that can only be likened to a tolkein elf, it is rich in harmonics, ethereal and just plain gorgeous"
​Fatea Magazine​

"The most perfect recording I’ve heard this year, maybe in a couple of years" John Diliberto ECHOES, USA
CHOSEN AS ECHOES BEST ALBUM OF 2018
