Event information

Sonido Polifonico presents two of the best folk-inspired artists working in the UK today. Third time for Me Lost Me at Bishops' House cos we love her! And second time for Rosie Brownhill cos we are obsessed with her puppet organ.

Me Lost Me

Me Lost Me delights in experimenting with songwriting, creating a beguiling mix of soaring vocals and atmospheric electronics that playfully push the boundaries of genre. The Project of Newcastle-based artist Jayne Dent who takes influence from folk, art pop, noise, ambient and improvised music, her work has been described in The Guardian as "stripping folk back to its bones while letting its future echoes bleed out".

With her prolific writing and extensive touring schedule, her unique sound has won much support across the musical spectrum. Dent has notably performed live for BBC Radio 3's After Dark Festival and as part of the 2022 BBC Proms alongside Spell Songs, Royal Northern Sinfonia and the Voices of the Rivers Edge Choir. She received the prestigious Paul Hamlyn Foundation Award for Composers and was 2020-2021 Artist in Residence at Sage Gateshead.

With Me Lost Me’s third full-length album ‘RPG’, released in July 2023 on Upset the Rhythm, she has expanded her sound palette even further, diving deep into the question of what it means to make contemporary folk music. RPG presents the idea of songwriting as a role-playing game and invites the listener in to explore this strange new world of fantasy pastoral lands, sleepless unreality, and the joy of losing yourself in stories.

Rosie Brownhill

Rosie Brownhill is a musician and composer based in Staffordshire who performs traditional and composed material. She is inspired by the landscape around her and composes for guitar, tin whistle, organ, flute, piano and accordion. Her music allows her to explore her relationship with space and environment past and present,

If you saw her support Cerys Hafana last year, you'll know why we were so keen to have her back.
