Josienne Clarke

Indie-folk singer, songwriter, guitarist and producer Josienne Clarke is often said to draw on traditional British folk inspirations, but is a thoroughly modern, multifaceted artist who follows her own compass.Blessed with a voice of crystalline beauty and clarity that has been compared to Sandy Denny, her myriad of talents translate effortlessly to the live space in performances that are all her own.

She is 'BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards'-winning artist and has also been hand-picked as main tour support for folk legend Richard Thompson, as well as sharing a stage with Robert Plant of Led Zeppelin.As well as being a guitarist and vocalist of alarmingly good quality, her unforgettably dark wit also acts as compelling counterpoint to her own twilit, low-key and intimate compositions when playing live.Clarke’s rare authenticity – the main unifying thread running through her career – is something to admire: here is an artist singularly unafraid to express herself via her art and is naturally armed with all the verve and ability to do so – and bring the audience with her.
