Chris Cresswell -A composer, singer/songwriter, educator, guitarist, and sound artist whose work betrays his affection for sonic wanderlust. With an ear that incorporates all sorts of sounds, from field recordings to a singer/songwriter at an open mic night, Cresswell’s music has been praised for its '“textural variety” (Gramophone) that “… blurs the boundaries between industrial and organic, soothing and suspenseful, and introspective and anxious" Amanda Rogers, the soulful voice behind the keys, has captivated audiences with her introspective lyrics and haunting melodies for over two decades. Amanda’s unwavering ascent as a singer-songwriter, in the face of adversity, has been a testament to the depth and complexity of the human condition. In her latest EP album, 52 Hurts, Amanda Rogers delves into the profound emotional landscapes that define our existence. Inspired by the mysterious “52 Hertz Whale”, known as ‘the loneliest creature on Earth’ due to its unique and solitary vocalizations, Amanda draws a parallel to the solitary struggles we all face in our lives.
