ELIZABETH & JAMESON: Elizabeth & Jameson is an award-winning collaboration comprising two rising stars of the UK acoustic music scene. Hannah Elizabeth and Griff Jameson have joined forces to create an indie-folk sound which encompasses both their individual musical backgrounds of traditional folk-roots and folk pop/rock. This is simplistic, classic song writing at its best – a stripped back harmony-driven sound with acoustic guitar, violin, accordion and exquisite harmony vocals.
Festival highlights during the last year include Cambridge Folk Festival and the Great British Folk Festival, where the duo won the public vote for the Introducing Stage and are due to return this November to open on the main stage. As well as enjoying a busy gigging schedule, Elizabeth & Jameson were also awarded the NMG Award for Best Acoustic, Folk & Roots Act for 2019 and opened four shows for Jools Holland and his Rhythm & Blues Orchestra as official support act for part of their 2019 Autumn/Winter tour.
Elizabeth & Jameson released their debut album, Northern Shores & Stories this spring to critical acclaim across the folk and roots community.
