London-based Flyte began to form when Will Taylor (vocals, guitar) started playing age 11 with friends from his local school. Later, Nick Hill (bass, vocals) would join after a series of line-up changes. Taylor’s parents were both English teachers and inevitably, various literary influences trickled into the bands music - the band even taking its name from Sebastian Flyte of Evelyn Waugh's Brideshead Revisited.https://www.instagram.com/__flyte__/

Anna Mieke’s songwriting and enveloping compositions have asserted her as a vital voice amongst Ireland’s alt-folk genre. The Irish multi-instrumentalist and songwriter based in Wicklow, Ireland, toes the line between folk forms and vivid dreamscapes, drawing on traditional and contemporary motifs. The lyrically ornate and instrumental delicacy of her work, alongside flowing atmospheric arrangements, contributes a challenging, emphatic and new voice to alt-folk. https://annamieke.com/
