***************************
The Nest Collective’s one-day festival celebrating the finest folk and roots music from around the world.
At The Nest Collective we’ve always felt that the shows with multiple stages – with musicians playing up close and personal, the old way – have been the most intimate and special. So we decided to create an entire festival around this: pure continuous music across several stages.
Wander from stage to stage with music all around you, seeking out familiar sounds and discovering new favourites. See what treasures you might find at the Magpie’s Nest.
------------
Lineup:
Sam Duckworth (Get Cape, Wear Cape, Fly) • Political, personal, passionate – Sam Duckworth is a standout singer/songwriter of his generation.
N’famady Kouyaté • A talented multi-instrumentalist from Guinea. His primary instrument is the balafon – the traditional wooden xylophone, sacred to West African culture and his family heritage of the griot/djeli.
Loshn • Loshn are a Klezmer ensemble exploring the traditional music of Ashkenazi Jewish culture. Their interpretation and arrangement of old repertoire sees their music speak, sing and dance with the tradition’s distinct Yiddish accent and vocabulary.
The Ciderhouse Rebellion • Traditional rebellion at its best. Profound and eloquent, epic and haunting, wild, dramatic and occasionally unhinged.
Auka • “Ethereal and euphoric – utterly stunning” – BBC Introducing
Reema • Recently relocated back to Brighton from Berlin, singer-songwriter, Reema, creates bitter-sweet, delicate folk songs with lyrics that explore being human.
321 • 321 is Kate, Ric and Dom. 3 voices, bass, guitar and drums. Somewhere between Folk and Punk. Maybe that’s Polk.
Aniya Savage • Ethereal, haunting vocals paint pictures of Aniya Savage’s multi-cultural life. Her songwriting tells stories that are entrenched in vivid emotion.
Claire Vine • Songwriter Claire Vine takes political and social commentary combined succinctly with uncompromising moments of raw beauty to produce songs that sound like they’ve always existed.
Plus more to be announced!
