FOLK ROOTS, PUNK FIRE & SONIC ALCHEMY

Estelle Mey weaves voice and hurdy-gurdy into a collision of sound, blending folk’s earthy

soul, punk’s raw fire, and the textures of experimental electronics.

Her music moves through primal rhythms and fragile tones, sometimes venturing into

ancient tongues or subtle sonic experiments like translating plant signals into sound.

Elemental, immersive, and fiercely alive.

​

Born in Ardèche, France, Estelle's musical journey began in Iceland, immersed in raw,

powerful sounds. Now based in Kent, UK, she channels the fierce energy of punk while

her music pulses with earthy, instinctive textures such as hand drums and primal

instruments. Solo or with a band, her live performance is a visceral, unfiltered, and

powerful experience.

​

Calling to fans of Eivør, Heilung, Warduna, Björk, Nine Inch Nails, and Sepultura.

 

 

'So punky, I just like that old school raw punk, I'm all about it! "

- Alyx Holcombe, BBC RADIO 1
