Bio

Loris and the Lion weave gentle tales of joy and loss; a patchwork of sonic delights to soothe the soul and feed the heart.

Georgia Harris-Bond (SEND teacher and trainee music therapist) and Rich Harris-Bond (record producer, studio and live sound engineer) are an alt-folk duo from Liverpool, navigating life together accompanied by: fairytales, folktales, lifetales, a piano, a clarinet, a harmonium, a guitar and too many effects pedals. Calling to mind the sounds and spirit of Joanna Newsom, Tori Amos and Jesca Hoop, mixed with the modern classical approaches of Agnes Obel and Nils Frahm.

They released their debut EP Jorinde and Joringel in July 2021, which received record of the year accolades from local and national music press outlets Bido Lito and For Folk’s Sake. They are passionate about the communicative and transformative potential of music.
