About

Yvonne Hercules:
Yvonne Hercules is a singer-songwriter based in Cambridge UK. Her music has received nods from publications including Clash Magazine, The Line of Best Fit, Afropunk, and others and she has received support from PRS Foundation, Arts Council England towards her work.
Inspired by Folk, Blues, Rock & Soul, her songs are a culmination of these genres underpinned by honest, thought-provoking lyrics. She also draws on inspiration from visual mediums outside of music including art & film, with visual concepts often coinciding alongside her songs.

Elsa Hewitt:
Elsa Hewitt is a producer, songwriter, composer and multi-intrumentalist based in the UK. Following many years of songwriting exploration and refinement, her journey as an electronic artist properly began when she started making beats and remixing her own songs in 2014. Hewitt was awarded the Lynsey de Paul Prize in 2016 and welcomed into Brownswood’s talent discovery program Future Bubblers in 2017. Since then she has developed a deep and deceptively experimental sound that is rich in subtlety and authenticity over the course of seven albums in five years.
