Betty Blight lives in Bristol, where she writes and performs folk songs on guitar and voice.
Her songs renew old ideas of English folklore, taking literary and historical figures as inspiration to deal with exile, youth, being an outcast, and women on the wrong side of power.
Silky Disturbance is both a solo artist and a band, currently singing and leading the BPA Choir in support of Palestine and peace. She will join us for an acoustic set, bringing songs of love, struggle, and resistance.
Through powerful vocals and honest storytelling, her music carries the weight of lived experiences and collective resilience.
Ben 2.45- close
He's an amazing folky dream who does a mix of flamenco, folk, and brings strong earthy boy energy.
