Kris and Cahalen are the ultimate ‘musician’s musicians’ who draw from diverse musical backgrounds but are friends and kindred spirits in their subtle instrumental mastery, evocative songwriting and innovative musicality. Both have carved out a unique place and voice at the intersection of traditional folk and modern acoustic music, digging deep into the well of tradition – those of Scotland and America respectively – whilst pushing the boundaries of intelligent and poignant contemporary songwriting.

Emma Rawicz CLOUDWALKER

Storey's Field Centre · Cambridge

Emma Rawicz was the 2023 Cambridge Jazz Festival Artist In Residence and Cambridge welcomes her back to perform a headline show with her new project Cloudwalker Emma Rawicz is a young musician already lauded for a sound and maturity far beyond her years. This project allows these qualities to shine in the fullest way possible, and will no doubt serve as a launch pad for her further evolution as an artist and as an instrumentalist. Drawing on wide ranging and diverse influences from Nordic jazz and contemporary classical harmony to rock music and Brazilian grooves, the musical material is unique and nuanced. CLOUDWALKER is a project that builds yet further on this reputation, with utter commitment to improvisation and spontaneous creation at the heart of her music. The tenor saxophone acoustic quartet is a timeless lineup that has been tried and tested throughout the history of jazz and improvised music.

Jim Moray

Storey's Field Centre · Cambridge

Jim Moray is an English folk musician, singer, and producer known for his innovative approach to traditional folk music. First gaining notice in the early 2000s for his startling reimagining of traditional songs, blending acoustic instrumentation with electronic production, he has established himself as one of the key figures in the English Folk Revival of the last 25 years. A true polymath, he is known for playing nearly all the instruments on his recordings as well as producing, arranging and mixing. He is also in demand as a producer for both a new generation of forward-looking folk musicians and the older generation of musicians who came before him. Never satisfied with staying still, the artist is still moving after shaking the folk world to its foundations twenty years ago. And in a genre where musicians reach their peak the older they get, there's a sense that he has only just begun.
