HENRY GRACE

Moving from London to California at 21, Henry played his first shows in the small folk clubs, bars and coffee houses of Los Angeles and San Francisco. There he was introduced to the music of artists like Bon Iver and Hiss Golden Messenger who helped shape his early writing and songs that would later appear on his self-released 2022 debut album 'Alive In America'. Since returning home after five years in the States, his music has been championed by the likes of Clash, Americana UK, Under The Radar and BBC Introducing. Roisin O'Connor of The Independent picked Henry as her spotlight artist of the week, while Danielle Perry named him her self-released artist of the month on Absolute Radio after seeing him play at The Great Escape Festival. His new album 'Things Are Moving All Around Me' was co-produced with Blaine Harrison of Mystery Jets. Recorded mostly live at Middle Farm Studios in Devon, the album marks a departure from the stark and sparse arrangements of 'Alive In America' and introduces a more transatlantic, band-driven sound with Grace joined by Harrison on keys, Brian Love on guitar, Toby Evangelou on drums and Thomas Holder of The Heavy Heavy on bass.Speaking of the new album, Henry says "it had wings from the start. Making records is meant to be difficult, and I’m not saying this was easy, but throughout the whole process, it felt like there was a force willing these songs into existence."

LINDSAY CLARK

Lindsay Clark’s music lives in the margins, where folk tradition meets poetic intuition, and restraint holds its own quiet power. Raised in the Sierra Nevada foothills of California, her songwriting draws from American, Appalachian, and British folk. She weaves these with a background in baroque and impressionist classical music, a deep reverence for nature, and a love of poetry. Her intricate style of finger picked guitar and gossamer vocals reflect the resonance of mountain landscapes and the spirit of musical outliers like Nick Drake, Rickie Lee Jones, Fairport Convention, and Robin Holcomb. Her parents were always playing records around the house—which was often quiet, and sometimes lonely— and the sounds of the 60s/70s (Joni’s Ladies of the Canyon stands out, or Simon and Garfunkel’s Bookends) were a soft place to land. Often perceived as shy and unusually sensitive, Clark found early refuge in writing and music — a space where unspoken emotion could find understanding and presence. Since the early 2000s, her work has unfolded gradually and intentionally, often self-released, always deliberate and carefully crafted. With each subsequent album, her vision has become more distinct and deeply felt, inviting listeners toward a fragile intimacy.Crystalline (2018) was praised by Popmatters as “a rare exhibition of the weight that minimalism can hold in contemporary, reflective folk music.” NPR’s Bob Boilen called Carpe Noctem (2022) “stunning.” She has shared the stage with Alela Diane, Jolie Holland, Nora Brown, and Mama’s Broke, among others, and has collaborated with longtime friend and engineer Jeremy Harris (Hand Habits / Devendra Banhart) on three studio albums. The late folk singer Michael Hurley — a dear friend with whom she recorded and performed in his final years — called her music “celestial.”Her forthcoming album, elliptic, emerges from a period of doubt and redefinition, exploring fear, identity, family lineage, and the slow work of self-trust. The record features contributions from Mary Lattimore, Meg Duffy (Hand Habits), Angel Deradoorian, Mat Davidson (Twain), and jazz musicians Matthew Holmes (upright bass), Paul Moyer (piano), and Nicole McCabe (sax). Clark is currently completing an MFA in Creative Writing and is working on a first collection of memoir and essays.
