Maddie Morris

Maddie Morris was the winner of the BBC Radio 2 Young folk award 2019, and is a contemporary folk musician who is heavily influenced by traditional protest song.  Originally from Bedfordshire and currently based in Leeds, Maddie is a strong believer that ‘the personal is political’, and uses her own experiences as well as music from the tradition to open discussion around issues such as LGBTQ rights, Feminism and trauma, to name a few.

In 2019 she completed a EU joint headline tour with activist CHUCK SJ. She's also played at events including Sidmouth folk festival and the main stage at Trans Pride Brighton 2019.
