Bedford based folk trio MarisaJack&Davy formed in 2015 in order to play at the DIY shows and house concerts they were organising. A floor spot for Stick in the Wheel’s folk night on The Golden Hinde encouraged them to further explore British folk music and they were soon seduced by the music of Shirley Collins, The Young Tradition and Nic Jones.
MarisaJack&Davy’s unconventional interpretation of the tradition is shaped by the harmonic blend of their three unique voices, playing styles and their music backgrounds. Marisa is also an illustrator, Davy is an artist from Tonbridge via L.A. and Jack, better known as lead singer/songwriter for psych rock band Wolf People.
