Future Folk Presents The Gleaves, Megan Linford, BG Starkings at The Lens Studio

We are delighted to be back at the beautiful Lens Studio at the Portsmouth Guildhall for another carefully curated night of Folk, Roots and Americana music.

Back in December of 2023 we were incredibly lucky to have The Gleaves join us. The Gleaves are a husband and wife, alternative country / folk duo. They infuse their music with rich melodies, poignant lyrics, and a warm, nostalgic vibe that resonates deeply with audiences. The duo’s journey is marked by their shared passion for music and travelling. Their individual songwriting and playing styles create a fusion of the roots genres.

They will be joined by Megan Linford for her final gig of the year. Megan Linford is a folk / roots musician from Portsmouth, Megan‘s music pulls from a fusion of inspiration from both Traditional folk music and the Joni, Sandy Denny, Dylan songs of the 60s and 70s. A seasoned performer with 12 years under her belt. Megan’s supported many Folk artists over the years including; Emily Barker and Mary Watersson, Martha Tilston, Greg Russell and Ciaran Algar, Luke Jackson and Dan Bettridge.

BG Starkings will also be opening the evening. Stepping out as a solo musician, BG Starkings has years of playing in bands and will be sure to charm you with his complex melodies, thoughtful songwriting and unique voice.
