Fritillaries

Fritillaries is the original project of folk/Americana songwriter Hannah Pawson, a Bristol-based musician using banjo, guitar and harmonium. Her recent songs have their hands in the soil and take a compassionate look at the shadowy parts of ourselves. Fritillaries have been played on BBC Radio 6, BBC Radio 2, featured extensively in Folk Radio UK, reviewed by RNR magazine and Americana UK.

Hannah is often joined by Gabriel Wynne on mandolin and guitar, her musical collaborator for nine years, and is sometimes joined by Kit Massey on violin, Andy Hamill on double bass and Anna Colette on vocals. Fritillaries’ critically acclaimed debut album - about people missed, places found, and things unearthed from the spaces the light doesn’t reach - was released in July 2022 on Pear O’Legs Records. The album was made possible by generous funding from Crowdfunders and Help Musicians.
