Swedish All Girl Band, Baskery and Adam Holmes And The Embers
October 25, 2018 @ 7:30 pm
27-year-old Edinburgh-born singer/songwriter Adam Holmes is one of the
brightest rising stars on the UK roots music scene, with influences
from either side of the Atlantic mixing traditional and contemporary
folk with his own brand of soul and Americana.
Picking up a borrowed guitar for the first time at the age of 15 he
straight away wrote his first song, I Can’t Be Right, for a lost
first love, and only a few years later it has been played at concert
halls and on radios all over the world.
Since then singing, writing songs and performing is all he wanted to
do and with the exception of a very brief spell working on a building
site to finance his first serious guitar purchase, that is exactly
what he does do.
Twice nominated for BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards, his first three albums
have also nominated for Scottish Album of the Year in 2014, 2017 and
now 2018.
Baskery is a Swedish alternative americana folk rock band, comprising
the three sisters Greta, Stella and Sunniva Bondesson. They are famed
for their brilliant live shows as well as their exceptionally crafted
songs.
This foundation of classic “roots music and Americana” settled in
their hearts, but also awoke the urge of breaking the rules of
traditional music. Baskery is a band built on what three people can do
together and it’s all about turning the music on its head, blending
the straightforwardness of punk with the subtlety of singer/
songwriting.
