Exploring the dark and divine through the lens of surrealism

Australian-born Londoner Harry Marshall returns to affirm himself as music’s next indie-pop protagonist. Arriving into 2024 matured and with well-founded confidence, the singer, songwriter and musician hones in a fearless, dominant and assured new sound. Marshall has been writing original music and performing on pub stages since age thirteen. Now a fully fledged recording and performing artist, Harry Marshall is a full band live experience. His consistent hustle for over a decade sees him a seasoned performer; it’s all about being under the lights and in front of a crowd, whether it’s at a sold out OMEARA or Bush Hall, playing with a full orchestra, or at his Piccadilly Circus stomping ground - as long as there’s a mic and a guitar.

Tess is a visual artist with a strong foundation in acrylic painting, who began her creative outlet during lockdown. She has since begun exploring mediums, including digital, mixed media and more.

The themes of mortality are central to many of her pieces, using colour and subject matter to convey this duality, reflecting in the equilibrium between chaos and tranquillity, the natural balance of the universe, and with visual elements that blur the line between reality and the unknown.

Tess aims to expand and push creative boundaries in any way possible. With a mixed background, she looks to include heritage and culture into her works, and therefore reinforce the values of inclusion and connection too, encouraging unity and shared experience among all who engage with the arts.
