With hundreds of gigs behind him, a coveted Danny Kyle Award from Celtic Connections, and three awards from Italy’s premier world music festival, Elliott Morris has a formidable reputation as one of the hardest-working and most sought-after artists on the acoustic scene.
The singer-songwriter, featured in Acoustic magazine as ‘The Next Big Thing’, accompanies heartfelt lyrics with a unique guitar style – favouring open tunings, his extended techniques include percussive hits, string tapping, and occasionally slide.
Half English, half Scottish and raised in Wales and Lincolnshire, Elliott has continued this journey by honing his craft on the road. He has played all across the British Isles, from Orkney to Jersey, Boston to Llangrannog, Belfast to Clonakilty. And further afield, he’s headlined shows in Germany, Holland, Ireland and Canada.
Inspired by jazz harmony, soulful melodies, curiosity and a love of simple everyday natural beauty, Sascha Osborn is a songwriter and performer of reflective and heartfelt songs. Blending her cocktail of influences, seamlessly dancing between the ‘folk’, ‘jazz’ and ‘retro-soul’ worlds, she utilises these flavours and colours to express narratives of relationships and evocations of life experience, love, loss, and hope.
