Green Mind Presents: two brilliant artists from the worlds of Americana and British folk-pop joining forces with double bassist Joe Hughes in a celebration of what brings us together.Serious Child
Serious Child hails from an old beech wood in Sussex, and draws from a range of acoustic influences from folk to pop to bossa nova. His pin-sharp lyrics explore the world around us with a poet’s ear for emotion and a comedian’s eye for everyday detail.
“writes about Britain today in a way that is almost tactile… with wit, style, intelligence and bags of melody” ★★★★★ Spiral Earth
My Girl The River
Kris Wilkinson Hughes aka My Girl the River is a Louisiana native, now based in the UK after a decade of songwriting in Nashville. She has recently released her third album, Songs About Space, to strong critical acclaim.
As a performer, she is funny, warm and fearless with a sackful of hook laden songs and a voice of sweet sugared espresso. You might find yourself singing along or shedding a tear on your journey. Love, loss, Louisiana and Hot Chicken are just some of the stops along the way.
“A lovely mélange of Americana Roots music brings to mind Jason Isbell and Lucinda Williams…. exceptional songwriting” ★★★★ Paste Magazine
& introducing Lara Gisborne
Lara Gisborne, a singer/songwriter from Cambridge, will be opening the evening. Her gentle songs are inspired by family stories, nature and small natural moments in life, with musical influences ranging from Everything but the Girl to her Balkan heritage, folk, classical and 80s pop.
