Rosie Tee
Rosie Tee is a composer and performer who forges an innovative, atmospheric blend of electronica, psych and avant-pop amongst the industrial backdrop of the UK's second city, Birmingham. Her work spans explorative songwriting, immersive sound-design and writing for large-scale ensembles.

Since 2018, she's collaborated closely with her quartet, touring across the UK with a line-up of offkilter synths (Piera Onacko), swarming bass (Dan Cippico) and textural drums (Kai Chareunsy). Together, they ebb and flow between digital and analogue worlds, most at home on the stage of their cinematic live performances, where they've supported artists like Stealing Sheep, Submotion Orchestra, Flamingods and The Orielles. Festival performances include Fat Out Festival, Mostly Jazz Funk & Soul and Cheltenham Jazz Festival.

boci
boci is an innovative violinist and songwriter based in Bristol, who creates emotive, astral alt-folk using her voice, guitar and violin with ethereal electronic effects, backed by warm synths and vocal harmonies. Her songwriting draws much inspiration from time spent in the natural world, walking alone in the mountains of Scotland, Wales and the Lake District.
