Paul Mosley plays a monthly residency at The Harrison, with special guest musicians joining for collaborations and individual sets each month. This month he will be joined by Rebecca Hollweg and folk-rock indie band Candidate.

PAUL MOSLEY is an award winning composer/singer/songwriter who loves a concept. Combining charmingly off kilter art-rock sensibilities with hook laden choruses, his hugely enjoyable live shows have taken his ever rotating' Red Meat Orchestra' everywhere from Glastonbury to Green Man via the brothels of Amsterdam and the most remote wilds of Iceland. His album ‘The Butcher’ is an epic folk opera, a ghost story 2 years in the making, told over 20 songs by 20+ musicians - friends made on Mosley’s various composing projects including Josienne Clarke, Jamie Lawson, Mediaeval Baebe Esther Dee, long time collaborator harpist Tom Moth (Florence And The Machine), and musicians from the bands of Feist, Benjamin Clementine, Madness, Patrick Wolf and Neko Case.

Rebecca Hollweg 'combines old-school craftsmanship with Joni Mitchell's perspectives on relationships and environment’ (UNCUT) and is a "a silky-voiced jazz-influenced songwriter par excellence” (THE GUARDIAN) who "laces her low-key arrangements with exquisite vocals” ( BBC Radio 2, Janice Long)

Candidate are an indie band from the United Kingdom, whose music has been described as folk rock, "full of gentle, dark soundscapes" and an "overflowing sink”. Brother Joel and Alex Morris are the co-writers of The Framley Examiner . Their new album is out November 2023.
