Radio 1鈥檚 recent Big Weekend in Norwich shone a light on the city, which has a very active music scene centered around the Norwich Arts Centre - one of the UK's best small venues. Of the many artists that play there, none is finer than singer-songwriter Milly Hirst. Like Laura Marling, Hirst composes narrative-led folk songs that are steeped in musical history but also luscious and fresh-sounding. She started out by releasing a self-titled EP in 2012, which caught the ears of 麻豆官网首页入口 Introducing in Norfolk, then her 2013 single Heptonstall Old Church was chosen as a Headphone Moment by 6 Music鈥檚 Lauren Laverne, who called it a 鈥渟tunning track鈥.
This year is set to become the biggest year of Hirst鈥檚 blossoming career. Aside from playing Glastonbury, she鈥檚 recording an album to follow-up Equator, a live album, and playing shows across the UK. Pastoral, mature, soulful and ethereal鈥 Hirst鈥檚 music is a perfect match with Worthy Farm.
