Olivia Rafferty / Lily Monaghan / Mallory Chipman
The Banshee Labyrinth · Edinburgh
With powerful voices built to echo through their expansive prairie homeland of western Canada, esteemed folk singer-songwriters Mallory Chipman & Lily Monaghan return to the UK to team up with Scottish singer-songwriter Olivia Rafferty for one night only at Banshee’s Labyrinth. Olivia Rafferty “Olivia’s songs are Wes Andersonia for the ears” — Findlay Napier Olivia Rafferty is a songwriter hailing from North-East Scotland. Her debut EP Hurricane saw her featured on BBC Radio Scotland and Folk Radio UK, as well as a tour spearheaded by a showcase at Inverness’ Eden Court. Her last name may be familiar to some, as Olivia shares her family tree with ‘Baker Street’ songwriter Gerry Rafferty. Growing up on a diet of power-pop and Americana, she started songwriting under the influence of troubadours such as Elvis Costello and Bruce Springsteen, although her sound came into focus through the indie-folk catalog of her 2000’s iTunes library, with artists such as Regina Spektor played on repeat. What results are songs that hum with an Americana warmth, yet playfully sparkle with unlikely subject matter and the occasional Casio keyboard cameo. oliviarafferty.com Mallory Chip...
