Jennifer Reid

Jennifer Reid (UK) performs 19th Century Lancashire dialect work songs and Manchester broadside ballads (popular songs sold on paper in the streets of England), reintroducing audiences to their industrial heritage. Think rousing songs and passionate oratory for the working class. 

"Jennifer as a performer and writer breathes life back into these fascinating songs that vividly describe the tumultuous environment of the industrial north west. Taking their subject matter from the urban street and people the ballad effectively bridges the gap between folk and pop music as we know it today." – Jeremy Deller

Jennifer is also a researcher, educator and actor - playing the character of Barb in the BBC period drama, The Gallows Pole. She has recently supported Pulp and John Cooper Clarke, latterly for Chanel's prestigious Metiers d'Art show.

Rosie Whinray

Rosie Whinray is a multi-disciplinary artist, writer, Wizard of the South Coast and singer of traditional folk songs.

"I am interested in record-keeping and true seeing. I tell stories about things I see and hear, and things I think. By telling tales, I offer the medicine of my own practice as an antidote to the junk-thinking of the so-called real world. My aim is humble re-enchantment."

SHEHONK

SHEHONK is Bek Coogan - a Palmy-via-Paekakariki musician, artist and performer whose bands have included Cortina and Full Fucking Moon. Bek also performs solo as Sheville, or Oona Verse. She really likes singing and the fine line between yelling and yodelling and is just pretty keen for everybody to feel more liberated.
