Ora Cogan + Martha Skye Murphy + Rosie Alena
Entry Requirements: 18+
ORA COGAN (Montreal, Canada)
Ora Cogan’s haunted voice opens up a mystical reality; hallowed, forlorn and full of promise. Ora combines the intricate guitar picking of americana with grunge and psychedelic dreamscapes, drawing comparisons to 70’s folk legend Karen Dalton and sharing the stage with the likes of Chelsea Wolf, Scout Niblett and Hope Sandoval while touring extensively throughout North America & Europe.
Ora Cogan’s new album 'Crickets' was released on Hand Drawn Dracula in November 2017.
Crickets was recorded and co-produced with Tom Deis (Uni Ika Ai) in Philadelphia and features percussionist Dani Markham (TuneYards, Childish Gambino), violinist Russel Kotcher (Chamber Orchestra of NY) and vocalist Maia Friedman (Uni Ika Ai)

MARTHA SKYE MURPHY
Martha Skye Murphy had an early and prestigious start in music - at the tender age of nine guesting on the title track of John Hillcoat’s film 'The Proposition’, with music written and produced by Nick Cave. She returned to work with Nick Cave nine years later and is featured heavily on his album 'Push The Sky Away’. Martha's own compositions are ethereal, sparse and melancholic, driven by a beautifully haunting voice. Lyrically she draws on a broad range of sources from classical literature to violence, but all are deeply rooted in the London of her youth.

Rosie Alena
South East London based artist and alumni of The BRIT School, Rosie Alena, is the front woman and songwriter of her self-titled band. She would say her style mainly wavers between psychedelia, folk and rock but is difficult to place within any specific genre. Her band members contribute massively to her overall sound that is frequently described as having a dreamy and hypnotic feel to it. As a band, they’ve only been playing together for just under 2 years, nevertheless they’ve already gigged at venues such as the Peckham Liberal Club, Upstairs at The Garage, Matthew’s Yard, Amersham Arms and The Ivy House. Rosie Alena is currently in the process of creating her debut EP but you can find her tracks “Circus”, “Sun” and “Who Do I Call” on SoundCloud now!
