Angeline Morrison

Angeline Morrison

'Truly revolutionary.' 

New Internationalist

Experience an unforgettable evening of contemporary folk with a compelling double bill of Angeline Morrison, and Loïc Bleijan and Tad Sargent. 

Angeline Morrison, a leading voice in English folk, is known for her powerful songwriting and captivating live performances. Her acclaimed album The Sorrow Songs described by Eliza Carthy as “era-defining”, won the Guardian Album of the Year and explores the hidden ancestral voices of Old Albion. Stories told through song weave traditional folk with her original psych folk compositions. Her work has received glowing critical response and has moved audiences across the UK, with appearances on ‘Later… with Jools Holland’, Glastonbury and BBC Proms.

'It's not often that someone just seemingly stands up and announces that they are a major artist on the folk scene - but that is what happened.'

Americana UK

'Ophelia shows her astonishing range and broad ideas. Flashes of jazz, lush zithers and her deep, resonant voice mark her as an artist to support and savour.’ 

The Guardian

Mae Angeline Morrison, llais blaenllaw mewn gwerin Lloegr, yn adnabyddus am ei chyfansoddi caneuon pwerus a'i pherfformiadau byw swynol. Enillodd ei halbwm The Sorrow Songs, a ddisgrifiwyd gan Eliza Carthy fel un “era-defining”, Albwm y Flwyddyn y Guardian ac mae’n archwilio lleisiau hynafol cudd Old Albion. Mae straeon a adroddir drwy gân yn plethu cerddoriaeth werin draddodiadol â'i chyfansoddiadau gwerin seicig gwreiddiol. Mae ei gwaith wedi derbyn ymateb beirniadol disglair ac wedi symud cynulleidfaoedd ledled y DU, gydag ymddangosiadau ar ‘Later… with Jools Holland’, Glastonbury a BBC Proms.

'Deeply moving ballads don't so much tear the roof off as plunge their hands into your heart and wring out the tears.' 

Morning Star

'Morrisons gorgeous voice and autoharp render the likes of 'Unkown African Boy' as instant folk classics.' 

Uncut Magazine

Angeline’s diverse influences span folk, soul and other genres, having performed in projects like The Mighty Sceptres and Rowan: Morrison. Her forthcoming album, Luminous Dark, explores themes of alchemy, magic, and decolonisation, embracing the transformative power of the union between darkness and light. The Birmingham born-musician is now settled in Cornwall, where she is an active figure in the local music scene.
