Soren Bryce bio: 

Soren Bryce is an American singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist known for her ethereal blend of folk and alternative rock. Born in Amarillo, Texas, she began her musical journey at a young age, learning violin and guitar before developing a path in songwriting. Her music often blends introspective lyrics with raw, angular, and organic instrumentation - drawing comparisons to artists like Fiona Apple, Liz Phair, and Daughter. Bryce's sound is often characterized by its emotional depth, blending minimalist production with complex themes of self-reflection, heartache, and healing. 

In 2018, Soren rebranded herself under the moniker Tummyache, a project that allowed her to experiment further with alternative rock, math rock, and punk influence. The band project has gone on to release two albums and is currently recording its third. 

The newest solo album - ‘To Cherish’ was released in 2024 and was produced by Bryce’s dear friend Peter Miles of Middle Farm Studios direct to tape. The first release in seven years, it is a stark contrast to the work of Tummyache while still maintaining Bryce’s core perspective. 

Whether performing solo or as part of Tummyache, Soren Bryce has remained a distinctive voice in the indie music scene, captivating listeners with her haunting voice and bold experimentation across genres. 

Beyond her music career, she is known for her DIY ethos, often producing her own work and creating visual elements for her releases, including music videos and artwork. Her return to solo work has reestablished her as a vital voice in contemporary indie music, pushing the boundaries of her sound while staying true to the emotional core that has always defined her artistry.

Linus Fenton bio:

The introduction of Guildford-born and Devon-based singer-songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Linus Fenton comes as if from thin air, accessibly enigmatic and remarkably complete. 

More commonly found as a session bass player touring and recording for various artists, including Tummyache, Declan McKenna and Mystery Jets, his solo work recalibrates the universe around him, etching new ciphers into the bark of the many tangential branches and roots of his musical upbringing. Having trained as a jazz musician in Cardiff, his compositions ground themselves in the clash between jazz music’s tenets of improvisation and blues-adjacent riffs with melody and structure, while his formative years were spent obsessively consuming the back catalogues of rock bands such as Red Hot Chilli Peppers and Radiohead.

No matter the sonic deviations Fenton takes, he’s punching at a level where you’re forced to listen rather than wander your own paths. As he begins to find his own voice from a career spent playing other people’s music, it’s a pleasure to be able to finally sit back and hear it, in all its unearthed, piecemeal wonder.

The debut album ‘Evening Meal’ was released early this year on Bandcamp.
