Briony Greenhill in Concert, Bridgwater, Somerset

Anthropocene Motherhood

Doors 7pm: Show 7.30 - 9.45 or so with an interval.

New Work performed on the grand piano

Deep, thought provoking, genre-defying, interdisciplinary, solo music originally improvised through my soul.

What is it to bring a child into this world, country, culture at this time?

“You better be a shapeshifter, a mourner, a griever, a builder a co-creator….

We will need you this time.

Don’t get swept off to war

It is not what I brought you here for.

Get your building kit out

And we will learn how to shape our lives into the limits of this sacred earth…..

Some favourites from the last album, some singing along, some improv if we’re lucky :)

Stay over, camp out, there’s a vocal improv workshop the next day 11-2. Feel free to bring your cosy things to the concert and snuggle.

 
The Power and Intimacy of her new album
— The Guardian
Like Marvin Gaye crossed with a funky Earth Mother
— Mojo
As I watched and listened to Briony I found my soul and heart and eyes and ears transfixed. When we sing and commune with Briony, we experience an artist coming to us straight from her soul, unfiltered, and direct, and all who listen are transformed and feel ourselves and our connection to the world so much more deeply as this tremendous, once-in-a-decade artist brings us deep into her world, a world which is all of our world.
— Yari Mander
I came home with a wide-opened heart, inspired and full of energy. It was a powerful, heart-opening performance like none I’ve attended before. I believe Briony invented a new art form that is a potent, soulful mixture of vocals, sound, and activist thought. Briony’s voice sometimes seemed to be out of this world as she channeled messages that deeply touched my heart with love for the World and an urgent call to action to save it
