Maddie Morris : Songs and Stories

What are the stories you thought you’d never tell?

Join BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award winner Maddie Morris, described by Jim Moray as “leading the next generation of socially conscious songwriters,” for an intimate and powerful live show. Blending folk, protest song, and personal storytelling,

In this new show, Maddie invites you on a journey through stories of their life, while opening space for you to explore your own. Blending folk traditions and protest song with their perspective as a queer autistic person, this show examines identity, gender, disability, survival, and joy in community with warmth, humour, and honesty.

A hopeful and generous storyteller, Maddie creates a welcoming and inclusive space for all, rooted in connection, creativity, and community for all and especially for those who don’t feel at home in traditional live music settings.
