Tonight I was joined in the studio by London-based foursome Mockingbird (l-r Jo, Alice, Bethan, Frances). The quartet formed in 2013 and their mix of acoustic folk, country and harmonies have made them a big hit at festivals and live events across the capital in the past year. They have one self-titled EP available on their SoundCloud page, and have more live shows planned soon – keep up with them on Facebook for the latest news!
