The Tonic Sessions returns with a double headline show featuring Harriet Riley, Alex Garden and Stevie Toddler along with Jenny Lindfors from Sailing Stones.
Harriet Riley & Alex Garden’s music presents a novel, hypnotic dialogue between a highly unusual pairing of fiddle and vibraphone. Each piece they perform is original, taking in flavours from trad folk, minimalism and jazz.
Harriet and Alex are joined by Stevie Toddler on double bass, adding texture and depth to their sound.
Jenny Lindfors is a captivating singer-songwriter whose songs have been described as “demure majesty” by The Line Of Best Fit. Her return to live performance follows an intensive period of songwriting, observed through the prism of new motherhood.
Jenny’s ethereal vocals and hypnotic guitar playing is reminiscent of Agnes Obel, Linda Perhacs, Bobbie Gentry and the lost demo tapes of Laurel Canyon.
