9Bach were formed in 2005, by guitarist Martin Hoyland and vocalist and BAFTA award winner, Lisa Jên.
9Bach first played WOMEX in Copenhagen 2010, and again in Cardiff 2013, with many European festivals following.
Martin and Lisa have been working hard in collaboration with Andy Gangadeen, on creating a new upbeat, electronic sound, which is soon to be revealed!
“Here’s a debut British folk album that is compelling even for those who can’t understand a word of what is being sung. Lisa Jen Brown clearly has the potential to match Scotland’s Julie Fowlis as a British star who doesn’t sing in English.” Robin Denselow, The Guardian ****
“A deeply, dark, beguiling and delicious object, the debut album of 9bach’s is a polarising experience. It’s not in the least straightforward, yet it is powerful, complex and simplistic all at once; be in no doubt I love it thoroughly.” Simon Jones, fRoots ****
