New Roots presents…. The Little Unsaid + Jinwoo
Led by multi-instrumentalist, songwriter and producer John Elliott, THE LITTLE UNSAID are recently released their fourth album, recorded with Radiohead engineer Graeme Stewart. Dots and Dashes has called The Little Unsaid ‘a giddying conflation of folk, electronica and lavish orchestration…one of the genre’s grandest successes thus far.’. Combining string and brass orchestration with electronics and found sounds, Elliot completes the picture with haunting, androgynous vocals. The Little Unsaid live show consists of a live band with string section- highlights have included touring the UK with American singer-songwriter Catherine Feeny, supports with Rozi Plain, This is the Kit and Rue Royale, and performances at Glastonbury, The Secret Garden Party and Larmer Tree.
