Events
Born & raised in Poland, BASIA BARTZ has established herself as a prolific player on the London music scene since relocating to the UK over fifteen years ago. As a violinist she’s recorded and performed and with many London based singer songwriters and bands (Dana Immanuel and the Stolen Band, Nadine Khouri, Ben Walker, Rob Corcoran and the Necessary Evils, Jason McNiff, Dan Raza, Michele Stodart, Ger Lane, Bandini, Jamie Lenman, Moulettes, Boxer Rebellion, Rooftop Assembly, Bennett Valuks).
Basia started writing and performing her own compositions and arrangements of folk songs in 2019. Her first EP, produced by Brighton guitarist and producer Ben Walker, came out in 2024 on a small Deptford based record label Deep River Records. She’s currently in the process of recording her first full length album with Ben Reed on bass, Chris Jones on drums and an array of musician guests. The record is expected to be released in 2026 on East London label Elsden Music.
Whether performing arrangements of traditional songs or her own original material, Basia combines sounds from the many musical worlds she’s visited and weaves them into an intricate and evocative musical tapestry.
