Kalopsia

An alt-folk 2 or 3 piece band, Kalopsia are Kathy Rhodes (vocals and guitar), Ken Bisson (electric violin), and for suitable venues, the addition of our drummer, Les Jordan. 

We play folk originals sung with a captivating voice and emotive arrangements, sometimes incorporating poems and sonnets by Shakespeare, Byron and Shelley. Our performances conjure a fragile, atmospheric and timeless emotional experience. Occasionally we also perform a well-considered cover, which is transformative and crafted in our own style.

Our music is filled with elegance, charm and soothing moments of calm, contrasted by dynamic bursts of emotion creating visions that resonate.

We have been compared to This Is The Kit, PJ Harvey and Fairport Convention with an original twist!
