Bespoke Folk Music presents an evening of sharp wit and heart on sleeve songwriters to remind us we are all in this together.With sharp wit, chamber pop piano ballads and a keen eye for the human condition, Oliver Downes writes songs that linger on the strange beauty of ordinary life. Walking a path gestured at by artists such as Rufus Wainwright, Kate Bush and Nick Cave, his music blends classic balladry with a warm, offbeat sense of humour. His upcoming album While the Sun Shines explores love, loss and the quiet drama of domestic life. The title track will be launched and celebrated on July 9th at the Gaspo!

“It's a little smoky, a little sweet – perhaps reminiscent of the great Tracy Chapman – and has a clarity that ensures you won't miss a word she sings.” Double J, ABC
