Lydia Bennett, North-East UK-born folk-pop songwriter returns for UK summer tour, with music that draws on her roots in the North East of England, Edinburgh, New Zealand, and now incorporates inspiration from her current base in Valencia, Spain.

Lydia brings an intimate blend of folk-pop, carried by a voice that feels both delicate and deeply expressive. Her songwriting draws on Scottish and English folk, creating moments of warmth, nostalgia, and emotional honesty, with subtle arrangements that draw the audience into a deeply personal atmosphere.

Lydia has performed alongside artists such as King Creosote and Withered Hand, and has opened for renowned musicians including Kris Drever, Kathryn Tickell, and The Brothers Gillespie.

Accompanied by multi-instrumentalist Emiliano Caglieris (San Luis, Argentina) and guitarist Iago Aguado Coll (Valencia, Spain), together they create an experience that feels cinematic, emotional, and deeply human. An experience full of intimate vocals, rich acoustic arrangements, and songs that range from folk, indie and Latin American influences - the kind of concert where the room falls completely silent between songs.

Support is from Emiliano Caglieris and Iago Aguado Coll.

Emiliano, originally from Argentina, his music is shaped by years of travelling through Latin America, where music became his companion and his way of connecting with people and places. His songs blend Latin American influences, acoustic textures, and poetic lyrics, creating a sound that feels organic, reflective, and full of movement. He has performed alongside and opened for renowned artists in Argentina, including Litto Vitale, Juan Baglietto, Hilda Lizarazu, Adrián Berra, and Mauro Gentile.

Iago Aguado Coll, guitarist and composer from Valencia specializing in jazz and modern music, trained at the Liceu Conservatory in Barcelona and the International University of Valencia (VIU). Throughout his career, he has played with prominent musicians from the Barcelona and Valencia music scenes and performed at renowned national festivals.
