Sylvan Weekends

Sylvan Weekends are Matthew (Keston Cobblers Club), Freya (Freya Lily, Freya Ward) & Daniel (Stables). An alt-folk-pop trio who make music to tickle your neurons and give you emotional pangs in the pit of your stomach.

Sylvan Weekends began after a night of legend. Three friends with three varied musical backgrounds went to a rustic cabin in the woods to spend a night off-grid. They took some candles, some wine, some instruments (including a creepy mini piano – how else can a pianist join in?) and played and chatted all night; they compared favourite bands, shared stories and ideas – and realised that their musical loves overlapped in a unique and complimentary way. The result was the launch of a brand new sound that melded their passions – and a name that tied them to where it all began.
