We’re very happy to welcome Harry Nye back to the Con Club. He blew us away when he performed in 2023 with his deep voice and intensely moving lyrics. Raised in Barcelona, Harry Nye is an English singer-songwriter on the verge of releasing his debut album “The Safety of My Songs”, recorded live in unedited full-take performances at RAK Studios in London. “To Have A Life”, the first single from the album, is out now. In 2020, Harry moved from Barcelona back to London to pursue his career as an artist. Since then, he has performed countless shows around the city and the U.K., including headline shows at St Pancras Old Church, Troubadour and Servant Jazz Quarters. In January this year, he performed for Fearne Cotton at the Union Chapel, before raising funds through Kickstarter to support the recording of “The Safety of My Songs” in April. The full album is set to be released independently on 24th January 2025, before embarking on a UK tour between February and March.

 Sekinue, the musical persona of Esme Anderson, emerges as a transcendent force in the alternative folk music scene. As a trans, queer multi-instrumentalist singer-songwriter, Sekinue’s journey into the realm of music took a transformative turn upon discovering the enchanting embrace of the lever harp just five years ago.

Their debut single ‘Knives’ explores themes of relationships and mental health, bringing to light that we might otherwise have wanted to keep hidden in the dark. They are currently working on their first album with producer NightHouse.

Sekinue’s live performances present an extraordinary sense of musical intimacy, inviting their listeners into a state of bliss over the harp sound. They turn even the simplest of sequences into a whirl of emotion, inciting a rare form of musical honesty not to be missed.

“[Sekinue’s] music sounds like it belongs in film, I could easily see this as the music that leads a horror or romance scene; it’s versatile and a true display of masterful talent.”Earworms Music and Media
