Friday 29th November 2024 @ 7.30pm
We’ve been waiting for the right moment to introduce Bella Hardy to our Grayshott audience. Some will already know her and will have heard her beautiful singing and playing before. Others have a delightful surprise in store.
Either way, Bella has been making new music this year and we’re very much looking forward to hearing her perform it live.
As an appetiser for her new album, Bella released a single in February 2024 which is her version of a Traditional song called:
“Shepherds Are The Cleverest Lads”
You can hear it here:

The album is due to be released in November and we will be among the first to hear Bella sing songs and play tunes from it, live. Bella has enlisted the help of her good friend and brilliant guitarist Jenn Butterworth, to give her a better a fuller overall sound and a better representation of her album.
Multiple Folk Award-winning artist Bella Hardy started as a self-taught “fiddle singer”, performing at Cambridge and Sidmouth Folk Festivals from the age of 13. She is steeped in the Tradition but as her career has progressed, Bella has also absorbed musical influences from much further afield.
Her debut album “Night Visiting” established her reputation as a songwriter when her first original composition “Three Black Feathers” earned a BBC Folk Award nomination.
In 2014, Bella was awarded the BBC Radio 2 Folk Singer of the Year prize.
Listen to Bella’s stunning version of “The Herring Girl” here:

+ Ed Blunt
Ed has recently been capturing and exciting the ears of local audiences and when you are told by three different local musicians, independently whose opinions you respect, that “you should book this guy”, you have to sit up and take notice.
So here he is; local singer/song writer/guitarist Ed Blunt for your delectation.
