A group of multi-faceted artists share stories, songs and music of their heritage, in reflection of and response to our current times. Pianist/composer Robert Mitchell (True Think, Alicia Olatuja) presents a poetic response to the Windrush scandal - himself a child of the Generation - with cellist Shirley Smart (Avishai Cohen, Yasmin Levy). Kim Macari weaves spoken word with improvised solo trumpet in evocative soundworlds, exploring her roots as a Scottish woman. Award-winning vocalist Georgia Mancio (Alan Broadbent, Liane Carroll) pens intriguing family portraits from Europe and beyond in songs co-written with pianist Tom Cawley (Peter Gabriel, Catenaccio).

“[Mancio’s] singing has now reached an almost sublime level, clarity and poise personified"
