SUMMARY:Music on the Levels: Daisy Chapman
DESCRIPTION:Daisy Chapman is an incredibly well-travelled pianist and vocalist who draws influences from the anti-folk world. Every song harbours a dark story of love\, lust and loss told through her exquisite voice and piano\, with Sue Lord on violin bringing the performance to harmonious ending every time.\nSince her first solo release in 2006\, Daisy has proven herself as a talented and shrewd songwriter in demand. Three albums have been recorded by renowned producer Ali Chant at Toybox Studios (PJ Harvey\, Gruff Rhys\, Giant Sand\, Seasick Steve)\, the most recent (She Took Flight 2023) was recorded at Studio Nord\, Bremen DE and Nine Volt Leap\, Wiltshire UK.\nIn 2009 Daisy’s piano style and versatility was noticed by UK prog rockers Crippled Black Phoenix (Seasons of Mist Records)\, and since then on and off Daisy has travelled as pianist/BV with the band on tours covering every corner of Europe as well as a short trip to China. Daisy was also chosen as vocalist on their cover of ACDC’s “Let Me Put My Love Into You” which was used in Classic Rock Magazine’s cover CD – a stark departure from her wistful singing style\, proving her adaptability in musical genres.\nIn 2012 Daisy teamed up with violinist Sue Lord. The duo have been playing together ever since\, bringing a sonic dynamic to her music\, the violin almost acting as an additional voice. As a backing singer for well-known artists\, she has proven her skills many times. As a performer\, Daisy Chapman has a appeared at Glastonbury\, 2000Trees\, Migration Festival (Taiwan)\, Breminale (Germany) and worldwide tours. One of her songs (a cover of Rihanna’s ‘Umbrella’) won an Independent Music Award which was jusdged by Tom Waits – this certainly raised her profile with her peers.\nThe 2023 album ‘She Took Flight’ was arranged and written by Daisy with Red Carousel quartet on strings. Daisy’s love of string instruments (as featured heavily in 2009 ‘The Green Eyed’) is now ever more apparent and her skill at scoring has certainly grown over the years.\nIn addition to her solo work\, her newest project is prog band ‘Venus Principle’ where she shares lead vocals with ex CBP singer Daniel Anghede\, their debut album was released on Prophecy Records in 2022.

SUMMARY:Music on the Levels: Devon Salinas and Sophie Green
DESCRIPTION:Experience tomorrow’s stars today! \nOur free concert on Sunday 26 February 2023 at 3.00 pm in St Mary’s Church\, Main Road\, Westonzoyland\, TA7 0EP features guitarist Devon Salinas and singer Sophie Green. \nSophie and Devon will be putting their own stamp on covers of popular standards. Both are in their final year at Leeds Conservatoire and are already in demand at festivals and to perform with other solo artists and bands. \nSophie is a very passionate singer born in Wales. Her favourite genres include blues and rock but she can easily adapt to most other styles. \n‘I aspire to write music with my band and gig more with my own material to continue my journey as a musician\,’ says Sophie\, ‘I’ve already had the great opportunity to play at many festivals over the summer which has helped build up my musicianship.’ \nDevon is a dedicated musician from America and is studying jazz guitar. He has worked with many solo artists and bands in diverse genres such as jazz\, funk and neo-soul helping them push their own individual sound while giving him many opportunities to travel and perform. He aspires to continue to work with different artists to play at more venues such as festivals and shows like BBC Introducing. \n‘We are going to do a set list of covers’\, says Devon when asked specifically about the concert in Westonzoyland. ‘to name a few\, we will be performing songs like Isn’t She Lovely by Stevie Wonder\, American Boy\, September\, Stand By Me and so on. \n‘It will be all in that genre of pop tunes. And we will be playing together. So Sophie will be singing and I will be accompanying her with guitar!’ \nDevon also has a local connection in that he studied at Bridgwater and Taunton College completing the Performance pathway on the level 3 Music Technology and Performance Extended Diploma in 2019 before gaining a place at the prestigious Leeds Conservatoire.
