Overview

Jacob Alon, Paulie Swan and Sara Parkman share a London bill at Hackney Empire, combining indie folk, pop-leaning songwriting and Swedish traditional folk.

The debut single, Fairy In A Bottle, appeared in 2024, and the debut album, In Limerence, followed in 2025 on Island Records and EMI Records.
