London-based singer-songwriter Kirsty Merryn is releasing her new album on November 9.
Specialising in contemporary folk melodies, Kirsty has become a regular on the UK folk scene and is most commonly associated with introspective piano based songs and this album is no different, filled with tracks that celebrate all things feminine.
*See teaser!*
Funded by the English Folk Dance and Song Society, and produced by award-winning Gerry Diver (Sam Lee, Lisa Knapp, The Speech Project), ‘She & I’ includes the talents of Steve Knightley from Show of Hands, and tells the story of Grace Darling, a Victorian heroine, and her father William, a lighthouse keeper and is filmed on the Devon coast.
In 2015 after being discovered by Steve Knightley Merryn received national airplay on BBC Radio 6 Music and in 2016 opened the main stage at Sidmouth Folk Week for headliners Show of Hands.
Kirsty will be touring this autumn.
