Nick Edward Harris is a progressive acoustic guitar player, singer and songwriter. Inspired by musicians such as Andy McKee, John Smith, Jack Rose and Tommy Emmanuel, he combines delicate finger-picking and percussive guitar playing with distinctive lyrical storytelling.

For the past few years he has been following the footsteps of various musical friends Moulettes and Mumford and Sons and frequently collaborates with harpist Emma Gatrill (The Mariner's Children, Sons of Noel and Adrian).

Having recorded an E.P. in 2010 with Ben Lovett (Communion Records, Mumford and Sons) he is now hard at work finishing his debut album, Chimera. The album features unique collaborations with Emma Gatrill and Ted Dwane (Mumford and Sons).

He has spent the summer playing UK festivals and mastering his debut album 'Chimera'. This Autumn he has been on a UK Tour with the sci-fi folk pop band Maia. On 15th December he will celebrate the release of 'Chimera'.

Just releasing her debut album ‘Chapter One’, Emma Gatrill combines intricate harp playing with powerful vocals that soar above her classic songwriting, oweing a debt to Bjork and Joni Mitchell as well as her friends and co-conspirators Rachael Dadd and Alessi’s Ark.

An unstoppable and multi-instrumental collaborator, Emma is also a full time musician with the multi-tentacled psych-folk behemoth Sons of Noel and Adrian and The Mariner’s Children as well as lending her voice, clarinet or accordion skills to everyone from Laura Marling to Broken Social Scene.

With her debut shows under her belt – Her album launch (supported by Rozi Plain), a standout performance at the prestigious Willkommen Foxtrot festival, as well as touring with Rachael Dadd on her recent European tour and Sons of Noel and Adrian UK Tour, Emma has this year finally given the world her own music. And it is completely worth the wait.
