Bio provided by artist:
Drawing from a melting pot of influences, from post-punk and 60s folk, London-based Modern Woman began as the songwriting project of Sophie Harris, who started playing the songs solo at spoken word nights she ran. ‘I had a firm idea of the direction I wanted the project to go in, and I knew that couldn’t be achieved without a full band.’ Harris says speaking of the band’s beginnings. ‘It was important to me to keep the tenderness and lyricism of folk music but blend this with heavier and weirder experimental elements.’
After a period of comings and goings of different line-ups the band was complete after meeting violinist and multi-instrumentalist David Denyer, Madrid-born bassist Juan Brint Gutiérrez, drummer Adam Blackhurst and more recently, guitarist Matt Baker.
