Folk Bands and Artists
Sharon Lewis
Much revered for her haunting vocals and poignant lyrics, Sharon Lewis ( formerly of the female duo Pooka ) writes and performs songs on piano, guitar and ukulele. She has released two solo albums The Hour Lilies, Roses At The Top and an EP called Simple Things.
Her music has been described as “strong medicine for the soul with songs that resonate as deeply as ancient hymns.”
Anais Mitchell says “What I love about Sharon’s songs is that they are such a unique expression of her’s, but they are really every person’s songs, what I mean is that anyone can place themselves inside them”
Collaborations include performing with fellow songwriter Sylvie Lewis and Jazz singer Carrie Lewis under the name The Lewis Sisters. Most recently Sharon’s song Music Is The Light was sampled by Australian band The Avalanches and features on their new album We Will Always Love You alongside artists such as Johnny Marr, Tricky and Neneh Cherry.
