Stockport born accordionist, clog dancer and composer, Heather Ferrier, continues her mission to re-define alt-folk on her own terms. Her latest EP ‘Engine for the Sound’ creates music that sets the accordion free from its stereotypes, and with an extended line-up of musicians, expresses everything Heather stands for using powerful melodies and jazz-influenced harmony. Bold, passionate and enthralling; the EP has been played on BBC Radio 6Music, and has been favourably reviewed in local and national publications. When performing, she is joined by guitarist Alasdair Paul and drummer Adam Stapleford, manifesting a genre-bending collaboration that transcends the limits of contemporary instrumental folk music, employing Heather's distinct compositional style to create a show with both emotive and upbeat moments.
