Laura Frances is a haunting new voice in UK alt-folk, with a startling depth and a richly intense tone that instantly marks her out as one to watch, a unique new addition to the folk world . A dark, contralto Joni Mitchell, her songs are delivered with a refreshing brevity, wrapped in a cloak of misty melodies from a world rich in mystical imagery, where everything is half-hidden. She plays tonight with her full 5-piece band.

 

 

Described by Folk Radio UK as ‘the missing link between Nick Drake and ‘Space-Oddity’-era Bowie’, singer-songwriter Jeremy Tuplin has released two EPs and a debut album, ‘I Dreamt I Was Astronaut’ (released on Folkwit Records in September 2017).

“A cosmic gem” Clash Music

“A distinctive, deep vocal that has hints of Leonard Cohen and Bill Callahan” The Telegraph Culture

“Unconventional, conversational and intimate” Tom Robinson, BBC Radio 6

“One of the founding fathers of the lesser known genre of space folk” Boomtown Festival
