Christina Alden and Alex Patterson are multi-instrumentalists and songwriters from East Anglia. Their music is rich with intertwining harmony, sensitive accomplished musicianship and a creative song-writing style that is both delicate and moving. Deeply inspired by the world around them, they have a keen environmental eye to craft stories with the natural world at its heart, reflecting on the relationship between humans and the wild.
They have toured extensively in the UK and Europe, including a twenty-three-date concert hall tour with Show of Hands (including Union Chapel and St David’s Hall, Cardiff), a show at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall for Celtic Connections, headline and main stage performances at some of the UK’s most prestigious folk festivals and performances in Norway, Belgium, France and Ireland. They have written and self-released four albums, composed music for a BBC Radio 4 documentary series and have had over a million streams on Spotify.

Elly Tree aka Helen Woodbridge: Bringing passion and flair to music you can dance, listen, laugh and cry to, EllY Tree sings original, intelligent and irresistible folk songs performed with a driving rhythm and a voice that seems to “summon up the gods”. Vocal comparisons (surprising or otherwise) have been made with Edie Reader, Hazel O'Connor, Mama Cass, Joan Armatrading and Joni Mitchell and the songwriting of David Byrne. 
EllY has made multiple appearences at FolkEast, Weird and Wonderful Wood, Woodbridge Festival of Arts and Music, WAMfest in Felixstowe, Cosmic Puffin, Ipswich Music Day, the John Peel Centre, Great Yarmouth Maritime Festival and Farmfest in Somerset, as well as pubs and venues throughout East Anglia and beyond. Her songs have also been played on BBC Introducing and she has appeared on local radio.
