One of the most
inventive and acclaimed performers of England’s current folk
music renaissance, singer and multi-instrumentalist Bill
(short for "Belinda") Jones has a distinct knack for
breaking traditional music down to its core elements, then
reassembling it to fit her own individual vision. Blending
timeless balladry with hints of jazz and contemporary pop,
Jones’ previous two albums (Turn to Me and Panchpuran, both
available on Compass) established her as the boldest new
voice to emerge from the UK in some time and won her the
coveted Horizon award for Best New Artist at BBC Radio 2’s
annual Folk Music Awards. |
