Avice Caro Tickets

London based Avice Caro aka Maria Dearest, makes folk music that draws on fairytales and the strange folk-lore of the British isles, rather than bucolic depictions of the countryside. Think stories of seagulls with mischievous smiles and 17th century tales of lost love, sung in melodies that twist like creeping vines.

Recorded on a 1940s ribbon microphone straight to reel-to-reel tape, her most recent release Home Demos sounds as if it has been plucked from the annals of Weird Britannia. The album is more like a found object than a polished piece, featuring eleven beautifully home-spun songs that broaden the lo-fi soundscape that characterizes Avice’s sonic universe
