A band built around the core duo of vocalist Lauren Kinsella and bassist Chris Hyson, Snowpoet explore the common ground between poetry, electronica, modern folk, and jazz. Based in London, the band came together at the Royal Academy of Music, and grew to include fellow regulars on the London jazz scene such as drummer Dave Hamblett, pianist Matt Robinson, guitarist Nick Costley-White, and saxophonist Josh Arcoleo. Their 2016 debut, simply entitled Snowpoet, drew comparisons to artists such Björk and Ólöf Arnalds, while citing influences as diverse as Baths, Flying Lotus, Joni Mitchell, Keith Jarrett, and Ravel.
