About

Paula Ryan + Roberta Smith

Award‑winning Tipperary singer‑songwriter Paula Ryan brings her powerful, Celtic‑infused folk sound to the stage, performing original songs rich in storytelling and emotion. Her music blends guitar, bazouki, bodhrán and marimba to create a distinctive contemporary folk style full of Irish lyricism and warmth.

Roberta Smith, a Leeds‑based singer‑songwriter and original flower child, shares heartfelt songs from her new EP Airs on a Sixstring and single Shade and Shelter. Her performances combine wit, honesty and melodic charm, shaped by decades on the UK acoustic scene.
