Beth Roberts is a Bristol-based songwriter and producer whose music explores themes of post-religious identity, grief, uncertainty and renewal. Her magnetic voice soars over intricate banjo & guitar patterns picked out in unusual modes and buoyant grooves, underscored by subtle drums (Rowan Elliott), fingerpicked guitar (Danny Tryani) and melodic basslines (Alex Heane). With a hypnotic intimacy, she draws listeners into communion with themselves and each other - an invitation to cry, dance, or both. She's currently recording her debut album with support from PRS Foundation's Women Make Music fund, and she'll be sharing fresh band arrangements from those sessions at The Gallimaufry.
