Event information

Detta Kenzie is an English folk singer creating original songs alongside reworking
traditional music. With both Irish and Scottish heritage, Detta is committed to collecting,
restoring and sharing songs passed down in the oral tradition.
In her original work, a deep connection to the natural world is ever present. Inspired by
place names, specific references to locations in Britain, Ireland and Australia bring a
strength to Detta’s creations. Themes of womanhood, grief, rebellion and rage can be
found in her deeply narrative based songs.
Having worked as a Secondary English Teacher before transitioning into music, Detta’s
love of language shines through in her storytelling. Her words capture the diversity of
the landscape and its ability to both mould and reflect human experience.
