Rebecka Edlund, Phoebe Harty and Cori Smith met in Southeast London,
playing folk music and dancing polska into the early hours of the
morning. The trio immerse themselves in myriad musical soundscapes,
intertwining traditional folk melodies with original compositions and
improvisations. Their spiralling arrangements with spinning, trance-like
melodies morph into electrifying groove-based tunes, inviting the
audience on a musical journey. For the trio, no other feeling comes
close to making music, telling stories and sharing meaningful moments
with an audience.
