In the summer of 2024 they released their EP ‘The Weight of the Water Above Me’ which Glide Magazine described as “a glorious display of ambient folk”. It is the 1st in a series of 4 EPs which are being released seasonally, with the final scheduled for spring 2025. These follow on from their album 'Love' which was described as "intricate, lush and completely captivating" by Podcart. They are an ever evolving group who are constantly creating and rarely staying still. The Norwich based band are kicking off 2025 with their second tour of the UK.
With a voice that carries the weight of experience beyond her years, Maple Ward crafts songs that bravely delve into the depths of human emotion. Her lyrical themes explore love, loss and growth with raw vulnerability. Maple has taken her acoustic folk sound across East Anglia and has played slots at Latitude and the Norfolk and Norwich Festival. Maple’s honest storytelling is showcased in her debut EP, ‘Power to Grow,’ which was commended by BBC Introducing.
