Chloe Matharu is an Award winning Scottish Indian singer songwriter and harpist from the West Coast of Scotland.
Many of her songs draw on her time as a Navigational Officer in the Merchant Navy, inspired by the natural world as experienced at sea.
On tour she performs solo with her harp in English, Scots and Welsh. Her music offers "an intriguing insight into a new tradition of maritime folk music with thoughtful song writing embellished by her voice and superb harp playing" - The Herald.
From 2024 she will also bring electronic soundscapes to the stage, as heard in her single The Silkie of Sule Skerry, with a three piece band.
She is currently on the shortlist of nominees for the Scots Singer of the Year Award 2023. In 2023 she has performed at Celtic Connections, Cambridge Folk Festival and Hartlepool Folk Festival amongst others.
