Lucy Grubb is a singer/songwriter from Norfolk weaving her own way onto the British Americana scene.

GUISE is the voice and heart of Jessica Guise. Possessed of a remarkable folk lilt, she sings with delicacy whilst imparting dry wit and vicious asides – by turns sweet and haunting. After the success of their first EP, “The Fun Part”, in 2020, Guise released their first studio album “Youngest Daughter” on Xtra Mile, produced by Jess’ husband, Frank Turner. Reaching number 18 in the Official Folk Chart, the album received rave reviews; “a staggering debut from Guise who are surely going to take over the indie-folk scene” (Vinyl Chapters). Building up her live profile supporting the likes of Richard Thompson, Will Varley and Frank, Guise is an entertainer at heart and her openness, vulnerability and sense of humour set her apart.
