Jess Vincent and Katie Whitehouse - Live at The Old Stables

Description

Don't miss our June session Live at The Old Stables!

Jess Vincent and Katie Whitehouse pair up to showcase their latest albums, Lions Den and Drawing Lines. The evening will be a fantastic mix of solo, song swaps, and accompanying each other.

Jess Vincent is an an extraordinary young songwriter from Wiltshire with a unique and gorgeous voice has which has been compared to many, (Kate Bush, Iris Dement and Maria Muldaur) but is so distinctive that it could only be Jess Vincent. Utterly captivating live, she delivers her songs with subtle arrangements on guitar, baritone uke & harmonium and shruti box reveal a maturity that belies her youth, yet allows her vulnerability to shine through. Lions Den was recorded in her home studio in Bulgaria, where she moved to in 2017. The album brings with it a thread of the people, stories, colours, flavours and instruments from her new life there. Jess will also be playing old favourites from her previous three albums.

“Jess Vincent doesn’t just Shine, she positively glows” Mike Davies for folking.com
“..one of the brightest stars out there… Vincent’s crystal-clear vocals sending shivers down the spine.” Malcolm Carter PennyBlack Music
"Soulful, strong and utterly engrossing" Mick Tems, Folk Wales
"uniquely and obliquely original" Rock'n'Reel R2
“… accessible, tuneful folksiness, with dashes of Americana of the light-textured Appalachian variety” Folk n Roots

Katie Whitehouse has been involved in music as long as she can remember - whether as a choir leader, composer and arranger, a poet and songwriter or as a successful agent for other rising and prominent folk stars. Finally, she has taken the time to pen her beautiful debut album Drawing Lines. Her writing is deeply felt and sincere and her debut album Drawing Lines is inspired by personal life experience, but with a universality that draws everyone in. Delicately arranged and yet exceptionally powerful - Katie's voice gently weaves her way around you, and into your heart.
