CHRISTINA ALDEN & ALEX PATTERSON are multi-instrumentalists and songwriters from Norwich. Their music is rich with intertwining harmony, sensitive accomplished musicianship and a creative song-writing style that is both delicate and moving. Deeply inspired by the world around them, they have a keen environmental eye to craft stories with the natural world at its heart, reflecting on the relationship between humans and the wild.
They have enjoyed touring extensively in the UK and Europe; including a twenty- three-date concert hall tour with Show of Hands (including Union Chapel and St David’s Hall Cardiff), a show at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall for Celtic Connections, headline and main stage performances at some of the UK’s most prestigious folk festivals and performances in Norway, Belgium, France and Ireland. They have written and self-released four albums, composed music for a BBC Radio 4 documentary series and have had over a million streams on Spotify.
Their latest album ‘Safe Travels’ was released in May 2025 to critical acclaim; championed by Gideon Coe on 6 Music, a track included in a BBC Radio 2 show of Chris Difford’s favourite acoustic songwriters, the Mirror applauded it for its “exquisite story-telling…bewitching lead vocals and sublime strings” and it was awarded in the top albums of 2025 by Shindig! Magazine.
