Amelia Coburn is a rising star in the UK’s alt folk scene, known for her crystal-clear vocals, poetic storytelling, and theatrical flair. She blends folk, pop, and world music influences into something truly her own—think Joni Mitchell meets Wes Anderson.
Drawing inspiration from gothic literature and the shadowy allure of film noir, there is a darkness at the heart of many of her songs, populated by vivid characters and nocturnal creatures that inhabit the liminal space.
Her debut album, "Between the Moon and the Milkman dropped in 2024 and earned critical acclaim for its cinematic scope and lyrical depth. One standout track, “Le Fabuleux Destin de Sandra,” even has a French-language version and tells a tale of post-mortem revenge. Now that’s drama!
She was named one of Louder Than War’s “25 Acts to See in 2025”
Whether solo or with a full band, her live shows are magnetic—equal parts cabaret, folk balladry, and literary dreamscape.
Amelia recently dueted with Paul Weller (who is a big fan!) on his new album "Finding El Dorado" on the song "One Last Cold Kiss"
"A great voice with great tunes" - Paul Weller in Mojo Magazine
“A world full of darkness and light and soundtracked by magic and melancholy” - Louder Than War
Amelia will be performing solo for this show.

Although primarily known for her unique interpretations of classic New Wave, Punk, Pop and other oddities, you rarely get exactly what you expect from Amelia - unless you expect the unexpected. She's constantly searching out "new" material to spin into her own fine web. She is also developing her original songwriting skills with idiosyncratic, beguiling songs about, for instance, Pirates, Sleep Paralysis and Leprechaun Museum staff. As a live performer she engages musically, visually and through her between-song anecdotes and it's not uncommon to see grown people shed a tear or two while watching her as they fall in love with her unassuming, natural charms and that voice! A curious, unique blend of folk, jazz, musical theatre and northern punk it can hypnotise with a single note then spit in your eye. Catch her where and when you can.
