Folk trio TEYR evolved out of London’s thriving session scene, combining bothy ballads, focsle shanties, folk tunes and Irish poetry. Their unique blend of voices and instruments draws links between the many sounds of the Celtic and British isles. Featuring close vocal harmonies, fiddle, uilleann pipes, guitar, low whistle and accordion, and influenced by the great folk musicians who've come before, TEYR (‘3’ in the Cornish language) have honed their craft and thrive on weaving their diverse threads together.

Their acclaimed debut release Far From The Tree is a distillation of two years of playing, writing and wrangling. Recorded with the assistance of celebrated producer Gerry Diver (Lisa Knapp, Sam Lee, Tom Robinson), the “Excellent debut album” (The Independent) blends originals and reworked ballads, displaying the full breadth of the trio’s innovative and distinctive sound.

Described by Folk Radio UK as “High-energy brilliance”, James Gavin, Dominic Henderson and Tommie Black-Roff are three of London’s finest new breed of folk musician.

Queer Greek-British producer, singer, composer and visual artist Aphty Khéa, blends driving beats and captivating melodies, that journey from warm and blissful harmonies, to distorted and aggressive tongue-in-cheek shouting. Their toplines are performed in English and Greek, and their productions explore the world of electronica, dance & UK rave culture, starting from electronic pop, and moving on to deconstructed club, house, garage and drum & bass. 

Supported on Radio 1 by Jamz Supernova on and Jaguar on BBC Introducing Dance, their latest EP 'Salt & Copper' received a warm welcome, with further features included on 6 Music with Lauren Laverne, DJ Mag, Mixmag, Beatport and KALTBLUT Magazine. 

Lyrically, Aphty bears tales of vulnerability with poetic messages, touching on subjects of queerness, gender identity, social anxiety, death, existentialism, sex, menstruation and radical self love. Using a mixture of chopped, pasted and edited samples, they surgically dissect every sound they make including synths, piano, percussion, whilst sampling every single vocal style that exists is their voice.  Moving between Berlin, London and Athens, Aphty Khéa builds a hard-hitting visual sound world, offering through their music videos a glimpse into their imagined sonic dreamland.

With a musical background that spans choir from the age of six, studying classical singing and piano at school, winning junior Eurovision in Greece, then swapping their home country for London at 18 to study contemporary singing and vocals at the ICMP Music Institute, and finally a BA degree in songwriting. Beyond composing, performing and producing their music Aphty, has participated in the radical left scenes of Greece, France and Germany standing in solidarity for dignified living in the LGBTQIA+,  anti-capitalist, antiracist, antifascist and antisexist scenes.

"She literally stopped me in my tracks" - Mary Anne Hobbs, BBC 6 Music 

"She hushed the room to awed silence and even at one point appeared to play a Theremin with her head." - MOJO Magazine
