Amy Obenski

Amy’s fourth album, Grow to Catch the Wind (2011), takes her mul­ti­lay­ered sound to new lev­els. A string quar­tet, lay­ered har­monies, and howl­ing cello solos all join with her sig­na­ture soar­ing vocals, piano and gui­tar. Amy’s lyri­cal con­fes­sions pierce through the sonic com­plex­ity, per­haps more than ever. The album, her most brave and hon­est work yet, is the cul­mi­na­tion of sev­eral years of soul-searching, a cycle of death and rebirth.

Finn Bonel

From the doldrums of South London comes an uplifting Anglo-Americana sound. Finn Bonel writes songs from the depths of his rustic soul and permeates them with a unique and authentic vocal. In a modern day pop world of glitz and glamour, Finn’s primary concern is to block out the dazzle and wrench the hearts of his listeners as he pours his own raw emotion into heartfelt lyrics and entrancing melodies.

Richard Clarke

Already one of Worcester's most well known singer-songwriters, Rich Clarke had been seeking to broaden his music away from his familiar folk guitar structures, towards something more distinctive. Playing first with drummer Dan Bramhall, then adding bassist Luke Elliott, together they worked towards a modern sound: founded in the limitations of an acoustic trio, but drawing on the rhythms of glitchy electronica, to add something mechanical but played with the warmth and feeling of human musicians.
