Tamsin Elliott is a multi-instrumentalist, composer and film-maker based in Bristol, UK. With roots in the folk music of the British Isles, her interests and playing styles extend to European and Middle Eastern music as well as experimental and ambient sounds.

In her critically acclaimed debut solo album FREY, which comprises compositions for accordion, harp, whistle and voice, Tamsin explores themes of limbo, pain, healing and acceptance, reflecting on the microcosm of her personal experience of chronic illness alongside wider themes of societal disconnection and environmental grief.

The performance will last approximately 1 hour without an interval.

‘Tamsin Elliott’s FREY rubber-stamps the arrival of a new British talent, full of beautiful, filmic compositions for accordion, harp, whistle and voice’  The Guardian 

‘Tamsin Elliott’s debut album, FREY, is, in a word, sublime. Few albums this year have taken us on such a magical journey’  Tradfolk
