REMORAE
Exploring traditional music through experimental processes, Remorae's pioneering and mesmerising soundscapes refract folk music through electronic, jazz, ambient, sound art and prog-rock lenses to wholly unusual and wondrous effect, breathing new life into centuries-old folk songs.
'Almost an English Lankum, gentler maybe if with no lesser intent.'

Remorae are an interdisciplinary collective of musicians brought together by the 'Folkatron Sessions' recording project in 2017 (as extensively featured by Songlines Magazine, BBC Radio 3, BBC Radio 2, BBC Radio 6 Music, Soho Radio, and Folk Radio UK). Talented, free-thinking musicians, they intertwine fiddle and cello, incantatory close harmony vocals, and electric guitar with live electronics. Their magnificent sound worlds shift between ambient, pulsing, cinematic and intimate, sometimes shimmering and glitching, sometimes raw and strange.
Enthusiastically acclaimed by Eliza Carthy, Kathryn Tickell and Ian Stephenson, among many others, their 2024 EP 'Flourish In Green' received plays on BBC Radio 3 'Night Tracks', BBC Radio 3 'Unclassified', Radio Scotland's 'Travelling Folk', Soho Radio, BBC Radio Oxford, and BBC Radio 6 Music 'Introducing'. It is the culmination of many years of experimenting with musical forms and modes of collaboration in unique constellations of artists and represents a pivot point in the group's creative practice, centring improvisation in their live performance.
'Welcomely eclectic... a unique soundscape and feel.'
Songlines Magazine
'A bold, electronic approach.'
Kathryn Tickell, BBC Radio 3
'Pulling together different influences and music styles, they enhance and celebrate traditional song. Experimental folk at its best.'
