“Based in the West Yorkshire cosmic mecca of Todmorden, known for its alternative music scene as much as its wild weather, Bridget Hayden and the Apparitions start the year with traditional songs as heavy as the sodden moors at midnight. They were inspired by her mother’s lulling singing and unfurl at a glacial pace, with analogue synths and delicate banjos buoying up Hayden’s deep, measured voice.”
