New Roots Presents: Paul Mosley, Jack Harris, & very special guest Hannah White

About this event

NEW ROOTS PRESENTS - PAUL MOSLEY, JACK HARRIS AND VERY SPECIAL GUEST HANNAH WHITE: PAUL MOSLEY: PAUL MOSLEY is an award winning composer/singer/songwriter who loves a concept. Combining charmingly off kilter art-rock sensibilities with hook laden choruses, his hugely enjoyable live shows have taken his ever rotating' Red Meat Orchestra' everywhere from Glastonbury to Green Man via the brothels of Amsterdam and the most remote wilds of Iceland. His album ‘The Butcher’ is an epic folk opera, a ghost story 2 years in the making, told over 20 songs by 20+ musicians - friends made on Mosley’s various composing projects including Josienne Clarke, Jamie Lawson, Mediaeval Baebe Esther Dee, long time collaborator harpist Tom Moth (Florence And The Machine), and musicians from the bands of Feist, Benjamin Clementine, Madness, Patrick Wolf and Neko Case. 'What a voice' Jools Holland 'This is great modern folk writing' **** R2 Magazine JACK HARRIS: JACK HARRIS's songs take a compassionate look at things both common and uncommon, and see them differently. They are literate, curious, often in character, and always intriguing. His latest album, 'The Wide Afternoon', produced by UK folk giant Gerry Diver (Sam Lee, Lisa Knapp, Tom Robinson), was released to universal press acclaim. A SXSW showcasing artist at 17, and the youngest ever winner of the Kerrville Folk Festival's New Folk Award in 2005 (previous winners include Gillian Welch, Devon Sproule and Anais Mitchell), he has been the recipient of the PRS ATOM award for new music creation, as well as an EFDSS creative bursary for songwriting. 'Jack Harris is a priest of song who holds himself to a rigorous, ancient code of beauty most of us have forgotten exists.' Anais Mitchell HANNAH WHITE: Having picked up two Americana Music Association UK Awards in January 2025 for UK Artist and UK Album of the Year, just weeks after returning from touring with Jools Holland, HANNAH WHITE is on a roll. Her award-winning album 'Sweet Revolution' was recently released on indie roots label The Last Music Co (Jimmie Vaughan, Loudon Wainwright III, Paul Brady, Dan Penn) and hit the UK Official Album Charts at #14. Defiantly working-class and with full, proud council estate swagger, Hannah has been described by Holler Magazine as "Americana's answer to Mike Skinner, more Patsy Palmer than Cline". Her typically British, self-deprecating humour does nothing to diminish the emotion which Acoustic Magazine described as “arresting and wholly believable”. Hannah White is an artist who has “a wittiness to her grittiness and a sparkling wink in her poetry”; One who personifies authenticity and shows how London does classic, cosmic country. Uncut Magazine called her’s “an expressive voice and songcraft”, whilst Krentenuitdepop, Netherlands described it as “roots music on par with the best currently being made in the US”. Fatea Magazine said “songwriting from the top drawer” whilst 3 Chords And The Truth agree ”we are in the midst of a seriously fine songwriter”. “If soul is a feeling, a fire that burns inside you, then Hannah White is without a doubt a soul singer” (Holler).
