    “Folk blurs into tuneful pop on a showcase for emerging artists who also appear at two concerts in this month’s London Folk and Roots Festival. Kelly Oliver, a Folkstock favourite adds a Celtic lilt to Miles to Tralee, while Minnie Birch – who has already gigged alongside Joan Armatrading – carves out her own mid-Atlantic territory on Nashville. Ben Smith’s Let Me Down Easy is sleek and bluesy. Suspended above skeletal piano and dulcimer, Daria Kulesh’s haunting and enigmatic ballad, The Moon and the Pilot, revisits the bleakest years of Stalin’s rule.” Clive Davis, Sunday Times

This track was borrowed from Minnie’s excellent debut album Floundering which was released earlier this year. Nashville was written by Minnie Birch and produced by Minnie and Nick Harris at Spare Room Recordings.
Minnie's strikingly charismatic vocals have not only won her a legion of committed fans, but also caught the ear of Joan Armatrading who has invited Minnie to support her at Herts based gigs over the last three years. This understated yet beguiling performer presents her astonishingly bold lyrics with an original stripped back delivery, during which you can hear a pin drop. Her self penned music appeals to all, as evidenced in Radio 1 play for her single Glitter.

“Minnie Birch has an intriguingly girlish sound to her singing and there is the occasional Dolly Parton-style tremor to her voice but it is wonderfully light and enjoyable. Her singing is like a vocal version of a sunny day or a gentle zephyr stirring a flower filled”

Shimmering under the radar, we are thrilled that Minnie is performing for us.
