THE BREATH

“Quietly, inexorably, The Breath have become one of the most exciting folk acts. An acoustic recording that unfolds like a paper flower” 

A singer-songwriter duo to present their contemporary take on alt-folk. For them, it’s all about the song. Their exquisitely crafted, honest, personal, heartfelt songs are as likely to touch on childhood summers and first love as cultural dislocation, post-colonial injustices and grief.  

An unlikely pairing it seemed, he an acclaimed guitar whiz, ex long-time member of The Cinematic Orchestra and a softly spoken Manchester urbanite & she, a folk singer with a larger-than-life personality and a powerful voice to match. 

Their connection was immediate; they formed The Breath in 2016
