Blythe Pepino & Brooke Sharkey

Night River Presents: Blythe Pepino & Brooke Sharkey (Matinee show)

We are very proud to present this rare collaborative show.

Blythe Pepino is the immensely talented singer and songwriter for Mesadorm, an exciting band formed in Bristol. She has played two incredible sold out shows at HydeAway in the last year so we are very happy to welcome her back with Brooke.

With a lifelong interest in the voice, she is an advocate and teacher for self-healing through vocal resonance. Eliciting both tears and laughter from her audiences her voice is as versatile in emotion as it is in range and tone. Although she has graced stadium size venues and reached major record label prominence, she now covets full creative control over her releases and shines bright in intimate performance spaces.

“Some of the most interesting music this year” – The Guardian
“A beautiful record” – Huw Stephens, BBC Radio 1
“I’m absolutely addicted. Really beautiful, I love it!” – Lauren Laverne, BBC 6 Music

Brooke Sharkey was raised between France and England and is now currently based in Oslo. Starting her musical journey as a busker, she has since released 2 Eps and 2 full length albums ‘One Dress’ (2012) and ‘Wandering Heart’ (V2 records- 2016) and traveled extensively playing her Anglo-french soul searching, spacious and poetic songs. She produces her music and collaborates with various artists and musicians adding to her unique vocal delivery and poetic lyrics, reaching into the vast yet intricate themes of loving, longing, letting go, desire, empowerment, belonging, beauty and the search for inner peace through voice, presence and embodiment.

Brooke’s music has been played extensively on BBC radio 2, Radio 6, BBC Scotland, Radio FIP (France) and Radio 1 Belgium with live sessions on NPO Radio 1 and 2 in The Netherlands. She has also captured the attention of The Guardian, Loud and quiet magazine, Acoustic magazine and Maverick magazine and has headlined venues such as the Jazz cafe in Camden.

Don’t miss this chance to see these two very special artists in the beautiful HydeAway, Frome. Only 30 seats available. These shows usually sell out, so early booking is advised.
