Gren Bartley is a UK singer-songwriter and guitarist working somewhere between cinematic folk, intimate acoustic songwriting and finely detailed guitar work. Across a run of acclaimed releases, he has built a reputation for records that are atmospheric, melodic and unmistakably his own.His 2015 album Magnificent Creatures (★★★★★ R2 Magazine), produced by Gavin Monaghan, received outstanding reviews and helped take his music to festivals and venues across the UK and beyond. In 2019 he released Quiet (★★★★★ Northern Sky Magazine), a more stripped-back collection drawing on folk, world music and bottleneck slide guitar, which earned further critical praise.
His new album Sunsets, Circles and Waves is released on 15 May 2026. Recorded live in complete takes with no overdubs, it captures the warmth and intimacy of a real performance while deepening the reflective, immersive quality that runs through his work.
Gren Bartley writes songs with the instinct of a folk artist and the detail of a craftsman. Drawing on older traditions without sounding trapped by them, he has developed a style that feels warm, immersive and entirely his own.
