The Jellyman's Daughter
Saturday Sept 1, 3pm, Outside concert
Strange crossroads between bluegrass, post-rock, folk and soul.
The Jellyman's Daughter
Scottish duo The Jellyman's Daughter lands squarely in the middle of a strange crossroads between bluegrass, post-rock, folk and soul. Mixing their unique vocal harmonies with wild and visceral cello, driving guitar and sweet mandolin, Emily and Graham write their songs together with a focus on doing something new.
The Jellyman's Daughter -Emily Coe and Graham Coe-- have played extensively in the UK and have toured across Europe and Canada, while also showcasing the past two years at Folk Alliance in Kansas City. 2018 will see them release their second album with launch dates across the UK, Europe, USA and Canada, sustaining the momentum that has earned them exceptional praise so far.
The Jellyman's Daughter have now finished their second album, "Dead Reckoning". The new album takes its title from a navigational term that, when applied to the human spirit, is analogous to navigating our way through life, and how we progress (or otherwise). This theme permeates the 10 songs on the new record in different ways, ranging from the overwhelming sense of bleakness imbued by many world events in recent years to more personal experiences of steering a course through relationships and journeys both physical and emotional. Featuring prominently is banjo player Jamie Francis (of Radio 2 Folk Award nominees Sam Kelly & The Lost Boys) and double bassist Paul Gilbody (KT Tunstall, Adam Holmes & The Embers) while Toby Shaer (Cara Dillon, John McCusker) provides fiddle on two songs. Graham himself wrote the arrangements for the 16-piece string orchestra, while Edinburgh-based composer Luci Holland conducted the ensemble during recording. 2018 will see them release the album and tour the UK, Europe, USA and Canada, sustaining the momentum that has earned them exceptional praise so far.
