Ribbons Quartet

27 Nov 2025 20:00 - 22:45

Singer Sara Colman and pianist Rebecca Nash are two musicians whose beautiful and intimate music celebrates the joy of musical partnership, friendship and collaboration.

Their long-standing relationship, centred around a song they wrote together called Ribbons, has honed a musical intuition that produces the misleadingly easy sounding but musically adventurous story telling of all good singer-musician relationships.

Built on a foundation of jazz, the creativity of the duo comes to the fore in their collection of songs which straddle singer-songwriter, folk and classical music with glimpses of early influences such as Joni Mitchell and British jazz pianist John Taylor.

Rebecca Nash: piano,
Sara Colman: vocals,

“…Colman’s exquisite vocals and Nash’s own penchant for blindingly beautiful chord structures…. the resulting music is simply stunning…” (UK Vibe)

“ …. At the vanguard of innovative and compelling new music.” (Downbeat Magazine)
