Jemima Thewes

Based in East Lothian

Music

Jemima grew up in the Scottish highlands in a dramatic landscape which continues to provide the bones of her music. A lover of ballads, but too shy to sing in front of anyone, it wasn’t until a brush with death in 2013 which gave her the thirst to write, sing and play songs. 
 
Encouraged by partner and producer Tim Lane (a drummer of Hidden Orchestra) to record in his studio, they created her debut EP ‘Bright Shadows’ in 2016 with Jemima on voice and tenor ukulele, Tim on a chromatic tongue drum, Susan Appelbe on cello and David Boyter on guitar and mandolin. Bright Shadows is a mixture of self-penned songs and traditional ballads and was released independently to great acclaim. The EP was well received with radio plays on stations such as Travelling Folk on BBC Radio Scotland and Late Junction on BBC Radio 3.
