Marissa Nadler
On stage, clad in
black shawls and cascading tresses, Marissa Nadler performs with an
intricate finger-style on the guitar, ukele, and 5-string banjo. Yet it is
often her voice that is a shuttle towards another time, a soprano
reverberating with melancholy and longing. From her earliest incarnations,
Marissa appeared with music that was unique and gorgeous skillfully and
simply hinting at the songs of the sea, the haunting chansons of maidens,
the cowboy ditties of ranchers, and the funerary processions of mourners.

Lionshare
'With all the stately
dolorousness of early Leonard Cohen, they combine guitar, cello, and

folk'. - The

North Cross
Hailing from the wilds of Manchester,
North Cross will be gracing the good people of Leeds with their presence,
making a rare trip over the Pennines to play their own brand of hushed
folk/country melodies and soundscapes. Truly beautiful stuff.
