Sairie Plus Support From Zandra

Deceptively stripped-back, other-worldly and beautiful. Ghosts, fairies and tragic love. The Brighton three piece of Emma Morton, Jon Griffin and Andy Thomas cast magic spells upon the listener. Their music is like a séance;
an enchanted visit to the inside of a hollow hill.To date, Sairie have released two 7 singles on the Fenny Compton and Gardener's Delight labels, and two self-released EPs distributed by Hudson Records. Their releases so far have received a lot of critical praise, and TheCinder Sheet EP beguiled Stewart Lee, who wrote about it in The Idler Magazine. Sairie now present their first full-length album, Beneath the Spreading Tree....acoustically expansive, drone-deepened, acid-folk nuggets - Stewart Lee, Idler MagazineHearkening back to the early 70's heyday of acid and psychedelic folk (and inhabiting the same landscape as landmarks such as Vashti Bunyan's Just Another Diamond Day and Trees The Garden of Jane Delawney), Sairie's gentle, graceful songs are both pleasingly out of time and otherworldly. - Grey Malkin, Moof Magazine
I love that this delicate sound still has a place in the 21st-century arena and that it is purveyed by such exemplary practitioners who are delightfully unpredictable and steadfastly avoiding well-trodden routes. -
