George Washbourn is a multi-instrumental folk musician, singer, and composer from Kent. He has spent the last 20 years scratching away at various stringed instruments; he has had the great pleasure and good fortune to happen to do this in front of audiences. His debut EP Lost In The Swell, an instrumental set of 5 tunes, draws from his musical travels, collaborations across the London folk scene, and traditional Balfolk tunes.

Alongside his work as a composer and performer of original material, he plays part in a range of projects including London-based global roots collective Flotsam Orchestra, River Wild, and Alex Connor.

Duo Madrugada (Emily Jennings and Cassie Mathews) are a beguiling voice and guitar partnership, weaving captivating arrangements of traditional folksongs. Praised on recital platforms across the UK – recently described as ‘outstanding’ and ‘ravishing’ (FringeReview) – they bring timeless stories to life with haunting intimacy and spellbinding artistry.
