The Performers
Kitty Day















Yorkshire born and raised, Kitty’s musical education ranged from classical to jazz and she is a multi-instrumentalist but she has only recently found her singing voice, and for this an acoustic guitar is the perfect accompaniment. Kitty grew in leafy West Yorkshire and has played in many ensembles and bands. She made her debut covering Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan on the Ukeylove scene and progressed to writing and performing her own songs on guitar, releasing the debut album ‘Master & Pioneer’ in 2011. She writes deeply personal and idiosyncratic songs from the heart. 

Kirsty Merryn
New Forest born singer songwriter Kirsty Merryn tells stories of boxing champions, forgotten heroines and frozen winters. She has become a regular on London’s folk scene, delighting the crowds with her delicately introspective piano based songs and sophisticated musical style, which are balanced beautifully by an intimate and finely observational lyrical content. Kirsty was recently listed in Buzzfeed’s ’34 Brilliant British Songwriters To Discover’. In 2015 she completed her first UK tour and is working on her debut album, produced by award-winning Gerry Diver (Sam Lee, Lisa Knapp, The Speech Project), which will be released in 2016.
