A
gig
held at The Golden Lion
on Friday 27th February. The event starts at 20:30.
Queer, alt-folk agitators, Dryadic deliver an intelligent, feminist blend of rootsy folk with a melodic pop flair, peppered with heart soaring vocals, and vibrant fiddle licks.
Dryadic's distinctive sound and connected live show command the audience with tenacious singalong hooks delivered straight from the heart, backed by epic layered harmonies, raw energy, emotion and charisma. Feel-good, rousing rhythms underpin candid, humorous lyrics. Expect foot-stomping feminist protest songs and travelling folk tales, to dreamy epic ballads with five string fiddle and double bass do-si-do in the audience.
Dryadic's new album "Permission to Speak” is released this coming February 20th, with a UK tour to accompany.

This unapologetically neon, make-up wearing

Bee Gees were lo-fi hip-hop, or if Stevie Wonder
had written the Mario theme.
