Inspired by English and Appalachian folk blended with alternative pop music, Amy Hollinrake draws on women’s stories within folklore and mythology and fuses them with a contemporary sound placing her at the forefront of the new era of feminist neo-folk. Described as 'absolutely haunting', BBC Radio 4 Woman's Hour and 'Both timeless and utterly contemporary' Songwriting Magazine. Her recent EP 'Sad Lady Songs Vol.1. reimagines traditional folk songs and tales combining them dulcimers and synthesizers, to create a head spinning mix of yesterday and today.She has garnered attention from the likes of BBC 6 Music’s Marc Riley and Tom Robinson, BBC Introducing and BBC Radio 4 Woman’s Hour. She also gained prestigious awards from EFDSS, Help Musicians and the Bert Jansch Foundation for her work. She also recently appeared on projects for Disney (The Little Mermaid) 20th Century Fox (The Boogyman) and Don Broco. Cementing her as an exciting artist deserving of any musos radar.
