With his work sought out from punk to Proms, from Rough Trade to the Royal Shakespeare Company, his passion is putting old jewels into new settings. He has been involved in over 50 albums as performer and producer, and his new solo LP Echos has received universal critical acclaim.
“Kirsty Merryn launched her debut album She and I in 2017 whilst supporting folk behemoths Show of Hands on their UK cathedrals tour. Her follow-up Our Bright Night was chosen by The Guardian as their Folk Album of the Month.”
