Chamber folk project from Bristol, Hedera, land at Kings Place for a special show as part of FolkEast in the City. They’ll perform original and traditional pieces translated through a prism of experimental minimalism and contemporary classical influences.

FolkEast in the City brings a taste of the UK’s most easterly folk festival to London for an evening of music, storytelling, and community. Renowned for blending tradition with innovation, FolkEast has become a cornerstone of the folk calendar, and this event captures its spirit in miniature-warm, welcoming, and with a sprinkling of the unexpected.

Hedera is Lulu Austin (violin), Maisie Brett (violin, viola), Tamsin Elliott (accordion, harp), Beth Roberts (double bass, violin) and Isis Wolf-Light (clarinets). They perform original and traditional pieces inspired by music from England, Scotland, France, Bali, Georgia, Bulgaria, Ethiopia and beyond, translated through a prism of experimental minimalism and contemporary classical influences.

Their eponymous debut album is a collection of twelve original & traditional tunes that reflect their craft as composers, tune-interpreters and collaborative arrangers (due for release in February 2026).

This event will last approximately 1 hour, with no interval.

Presented by Kings Place.

This is a 14+ event.
