Event information
Elle Osborne was born on the North Sea coast of Lincolnshire where she taught herself to play the fiddle (and ride Gypsy horses on the beach ~ altho that's another story). She was raised amongst folk singers and wrote songs from an early age.
Inspired by the language and beauty of English folksong, Elle performs her own songs, as well as re-interpretations of traditional songs (many of which she nicked from her Dad).
Elle’s debut cd, Testimony, featured in the fRoots magazine Best of Year Critics’ Poll, and was reviewed as “…One of the most compelling performances of the year”.
Elle featured on the Lal Waterson tribute album Migrating Bird, as one half of the experimental folk noise duo Lindsey Woolsey (“Willful dissonance”! The Times). She also composes for dance, and makes sound installations - most recently LongLines for the National Fishing Heritage Museum.
