Gwyneth Herbert Tickets

With one foot in the jazz world and the other somewhere in the future, she has released 6 albums to date on both major and independent labels, including the first Blue Note UK release for 30 years.

Since the huge success of 2013’s large-scale cross-artform project “The Sea Cabinet” - the result of an Aldeburgh Music residency - Gwyn has seen her musical co-written with celebrated playwright Diane Samuels open at the Southwark Playhouse, recorded a new run of BBC Radio 4’s Playlist Series singing the favourite tunes of Nell Gwyn and the Duke of Wellington, built an interdisciplinary installation about sculptors Barbara Hepworth and Henry Moore and a Fun Palace in Stratford Station (both with artist Mel Brimfield), and she recently spent a month in Kenya collecting lullabies, sharing songs in slum schools and staging multi-tribe storytelling happenings under the Mombasa stars.
