    About this Act

    Dryadic boast an impressive mix up of rhythms which underpin candid, heartfelt lyrics traversing an acoustic spectrum with Eastern European influence at one end, and British trad-folk at the other. Trio is lead by singer-songwriter - Zora (vocals, guitar, piano, stomp box) and Aly (fiddle, vocals) and Double bassists George Pearson and Cula S Walkers

    Dryadic's sets include old favourites from Zora's pervious festival five-piece The Tatsmiths, new collaborations and Dryadic songs, and traditional folk covers. The sumptuous harmonies melt seamlessly into bold, heart-soaring pop hooks, enthralling folk reels and stomping gypsy protest songs. A quirky, alternative and uplifting sundry! Zora, Aly and George deftly deploy acoustic guitar, fiddle, bass, dreamy melodies and four-to-the-floor stomp to bring their musings on the human condition to life, creating a captivating, magical sound that promises to ensnare the most diverse of audiences.

    "Dryadic effortlessly lassooed a packed out crowd into their gorgeous folk melodies and charming showmanship at The Secret Level last night. Big up to them." Overhead Wires Music, Overhead Wires Music (Apr 14, 2017)

    "utterly lush from the very beginning to the very end" GrassRootsSE (Spring 2020

    "Compositions with intrinsic beauty and a relatable honesty, whether that be a rootsy shuffler or a contemporary folk story song.......an entity that is totally unique in today’s musical landscape" A B Records (2024
