Hickory Signals are a Brighton-based folk duo consisting of Laura Ward and Adam Ronchetti.[1] Aside from their work as a duo, they are both full-time members of Brighton folk collective Bird in the Belly.[2]

History

Noise of the Waters EP

In late 2016 the Hickory Signals independently released their second EP, titled Noise of the Waters. The title of the EP and the lyrics for the lead single were taken from the poem of the same name by James Joyce,[3] and was chosen by the duo as it mirrored their experiences of living on a house boat. The EP was produced by Ian Carter from Stick in the Wheel.[4]

Turn to Fray

In 2018, the band release their debut album entitled "Turn to Fray" through GFM Records. The Guardian praised the album for its progressive approach to gender politics within the folk genre, and made it Folk Album of the Month [5]

With Bird in the Belly

In late 2016, folk musician Jinnwoo announced he was working with Hickory Signals in a new folk collective called Bird in the Belly.[6] Bird in the Belly stated their objective as a band was to uncover forgotten or overlooked British songs, stories, and poems, and reintroduce them into the current folk music canon.[7]
