Step into an intimate night of spellbinding songwriting and soulful storytelling as two of the UK’s most exciting emerging folk artists share the stage. Jessica Dives captivates audiences with heartfelt lyricism, soaring melodies, and a vocal presence compared to Eddi Reader and Sarah Harmer.
Drawing on personal experience and traditional folklore, her songs weave the natural and emotional worlds into something warm, poignant, and unforgettable. Winner of the Liverpool Songwriting Challenge 2024 and a favourite of BBC Radio, Jessica’s rising star is matched only by her ability to stop listeners in their tracks.
Grace Elizabeth Harvey brings her whimsigothic blend of ‘folk and faith in tender conjunction’ to the stage, combining intricate guitar work with sweet, conversational vocals. Fresh from a partially sold-out national tour and finalist spot in the 2025 Young Songwriter’s competition, Grace’s music is “hauntingly beautiful” (NARC) and “captivating” (Still Listening). Her debut EP Other Faith has already won critical acclaim and devoted fans alike. Together, Jessica and Grace promise an evening of rich melodies, emotional depth, and the kind of live connection that lingers long after the final note.
