“Country fans have begun to gravitate to Bird thanks to her evocatively imagined narratives about broken relationships, fledgling love and marriages that end before they can begin.”
The BBC put her on their Sound of 2018 list, while Rolling Stone magazine noticed that her music sounds like “soulful Americana seen through the emotionally wrought lens of a 20-year-old British songwriter”. Jade Bird’s debut EP “Something American” was released in 2018 by Glassnote Records, the indie label responsible for launching Mumford & Sons, Phoenix and Chvrches in the U.S., and proves that the young Londoner has no trouble finding her own place in the American country-folk scene. Her compositions and lyrics show great maturity, and her fearless attitude has seen her cover big names like Johnny Cash, Pixies and even Dua Lipa. There is no doubt that a great future awaits her!
FERRIS & SYLVESTER
Ferris & Sylvester are songwriters - with clear references in their catchy setup to the mid-60s sounds of Greenwich Village combined with their meatier blues tones, the pair sit somewhere between Jack White and First Aid Kit.The pair met three years ago and have since won over the nation with their ever-growing live presence and songwriting, selling out their debut headline UK tour. In 2018, the duo released their highly anticipated EP 'Made In Streatham' which they self-produced in their South London flat. Released through their own label 'Archtop Records', the EP has clocked up millions of streams and received widespread praise across the board.With their eyes fixed on their debut album, the duo have expanded their sound into deeper and darker places. Ferris & Sylvester uncover the depths of human relationships in their writing and continue forward as proudly independent songwriters and performers.
