Dusky Sunday / Band
Dusky Sunday is an indie-folk duo comprising of established musicians Fern Teather and Sam Thurlow. Drawing comparisons to Slow Club, Gabrielle Aplin, and Fleetwood Mac, we stand out from similar bands and artists with our unique combination of catchy, lyrical songs played on acoustic guitar and hand-percussion - topped with Fern’s smooth yet powerful voice, and tailed with Sam’s bassy backing vocals.
For larger audiences, we can switch to an electric set up, with electric guitar and drums. We can also expand to a 4 piece band with bass and keyboard if you want to up the volume!
In September 2018 Dusky Sunday released their debut single ‘Oceans’ which climbed to number 10 in the iTunes singer/songwriter charts, then in 2019 they released their debut album 'Gradients', earning them nominations for Best Album and Best New Artist at the NMG Awards, along with some great feedback:
“A stunning duo who’re making big waves with their playing and songwriting.” - Stephen ‘Foz’ Foster, previously BBC Radio Suffolk
“What are Dusky Sunday? Intricate finger-style and strummed guitar, detailed and sympathetic percussion and Fern’s flawless voice-of-an-angel floats and weaves through it all, underpinned by Sam’s breathy Baritone just at the right moments. It’s pop music, but also folk, roots, world, singer/songwriter(s)… and all of those at once, formed into thoughtful songs of love and life.”
- David Booth, Producer, The Recording Booth
“Unique and fresh in their musical delivery with an on-stage chemistry to delight any audience.”
- Sophie Pol-Simon, Music Promoter
