Event information
Since her debut ‘Scissors In My Pocket’ in 2004, Polly Paulusma has released five studio albums and five sibling and alterno-albums with Bjork’s label One Little Independent, all straddling the acoustic, singer-songwriter, jazz-inflected indie-folk and trad folk genres. She has supported Bob Dylan, Jamie Cullum, Coldplay, Marianne Faithfull, The Divine Comedy and a host of other notable artists in her 21-year career, she’s toured the USA and Europe as well as the UK, and played Glastonbury, T in the Park and V Festival among many others.
Paulusma plays a kinetic show of songs accompanied by Jon Thorne (Lamb, Yorkston Thorne Khan) on upright bass. Together they can play a 30- or 70-minute set of songs from Paulusma’s six albums to date released since 2004 on Bjork’s label One Little Independent. The musical connection between Paulusma and Thorne is something to behold; together they swoop and glide through songs from all of Paulusma’s albums, the latest of which Thorne has also recorded with Paulusma. Combining bawdy humour and anecdotes with extraordinary songs that touch on love, loss, grief and philosophical enquiry, Paulusma and Thorne lead their audiences on a journey of laughter and tears
