Singer-songwriter Kristin McClement cites PJ Harvey, Gillian Welch, Nick Drake and Leonard Cohen as key influences on her artistic formation, sharing themes of displacement, the feeling of being adrift in a complex world. Kristin will be playing material from her forthcoming second album, accompanied by Jools Owen on drums, vocals and harmonium. She has performed across the UK and Europe alongside notable acts such as Benjamin Clementine, Sam Lee, Kathryn Joseph and The Weather Station.

“A debut album of gravitas and maturity which should secure her reputation as a songwriter and musician of depth and character.” Folk Radio UK

“Weighty pop music which dazzles, shimmers and glows exquisitely in the cold light of the day.” Gold Flake Paint

”...an extraordinary collection of mournful yet beautifully crafted and poetic songs, with McClement’s deep resonant voice dominant throughout.” Brighton Music Blog
