Jesca Hoop

Beautiful, subtle and stark the Manchester-based Californian folk star serves up stunningly original songs - minimalist yet brimming with energy, emerging from a wealth of life experience, great emotional depth, and years of honing the craft of singing.

Close friends with Elbow, Hoop covers a great deal of ground, showcasing every edge and curve of her captivating voice, with sounds and themes ranging from the mythic to the deeply intimate. She sings of the religion that weighs heavily on her past and the world, of the imagination of myth, of the cruel nature of life and love.
