WILDERTHORN
Wilderthorn (AKA Jon Bilbrough) is known for Secret Gigs in disused and abandoned spaces, turning forgotten places of history and atmosphere into wild and magical ‘Wilderthorn-experiences’. His performances sway between song and improvised territory, driven by Jon’s unique and powerful, emotive voice, tinged with dark operatic tones and folk-style flourishes.
As a singer Jon has worked with award winning composer, Nitin Sawhney, members of the platinum selling rock-band, Athlete, The London Bulgarian Choir and renowned conceptual – electronic producer, Max Cooper.
Along his travels he has shared the stage with the likes of St Vincent, Ben Howard, Foy Vance and This Is The Kit.
His current work, IMMERSE ventures deep into meditative space. Building textures and sounds drawn from nature with soaring layers of wordless vocals recorded in the depths of both cave and forest.
Sekrit is a composer, drummer, percussionist, beat maker, DJ and Sound Therapist. His sound fuses elements of hip-hop, electronica beats and rhythms.
He has received radio play from some of the top DJs in the UK. He has composed soundtracks for short films, dance performances and theatre which have included the trailer for 2017 BAFTA nominated film ‘Mouth Of Hell’, ‘One%’ at Breakin Convention 2020 and play ‘Custody’ directed by BAFTA award winner Gbemisola Ikumelo which received 5 star reviews and a UK tour. His music has also featured on Channel 4’s ‘How To Paint The Mona Lisa’, BBC News 24, Amazon Prime’s ‘The Grand Tour’ and hit show ‘Top Gear’.
