We are very excited to announce the return of Bristol-based psych folk trio Hands of the Heron back to The Barrel House Ballroom, Totnes in association with The Black Bird Collective on Thursday 27th November.
The last gig this breathtaking trio played at The Barrel House Ballroom, it was a sell out and many people went away saying it was one of the best gigs that they had ever seen.

"There isn’t anyone else quite like them... Hands of the Heron unveil a profound sense of tranquillity and aesthetic allure – a soothing balm for the contemporary world." - KLOF Mag
“Like The Unthanks, Hands of the Heron’s Bec Garthwaite, Beth Roberts and Claire Vine share a near-telepathic gift for unaccompanied singing… fabulously transporting and hypnotic. Like the best folk music, Quiet Light also radiates a sense of community and mutual support, Garthwaite, Roberts and Vine operating as a diversely gifted sisterhood.” - PROG Magazine
Bristol-based psych folk trio Hands of the Heron is a long-running collaboration between Bec Garthwaite, Beth Roberts & Claire Vine, each of whom brings a signature songwriting style to the band.
Moving effortlessly between sparse choral folk and shimmering instrumental textures, their interlocking vocal harmonies are a constant thread running through the various hues of their dreamlike, mercurial songs.
“Quiet Light offers a celestial dreamscape for any willing ears to join their already considerable following.” - Irish Music Magazine
Their third album Quiet Light (Cuculi Records, 22 Nov 2024) is a seamless expression of blend and balance that explores the tension between tending for yourself and connecting with others.
“A positive, soul-enriching experience… with intimate, sublimely detailed arrangements that create a strong sense of continuity… tender & hypnotically precise. An album of quiet light and not-so-quiet beauty that makes a striking impact, proving spiritually as well as musically rewarding.” - Folk London
