JESS SILK 25TH SEPT
Jess Silk is a guitarist, singer and songwriter from the Black Country. Her passionate and
melodic brand of folk/punk music gets people sitting up and listening. Armed only with an
increasingly sticker-covered acoustic guitar, lyrics right from the heart and a distinctive, powerful
voice that many don't expect, Jess plays to audiences up and down the UK and has shared
stages with many well known names among the folk/punk scene.
Jess released her debut album, Break the Bottle, in May 2018 with a packed out show at
her spiritual home of Katie Fitzgerald's in Stourbridge. Since then she's shared a number of
other releases including two live EP's with tracks taken from shows at Katie's and HMV Merry
Hill. 2020 saw the world shut down and Jess release two (almost completely) self produced
EPs, the first of which, If We're Damned, was put together from songs that had been gathering
metaphorical dust on her hard drive, and the second, There's A Bar At the End Of the World, a
collection of songs written between March and August taking their inspiration from the events of
the year. At the end of August 2021 Jess released her second full-length album Blitz Spirit, and
in April 2025 she released her new EP Old, Broken Isle which was recorded at Metway Studios
in Brighton.
In recent years Jess has appeared at a number of festivals including Bearded Theory
where she opened the main stage, Rebellion, Beautiful Days and Glastonbury where she
shared a stage with Billy Bragg as part of his Radical Roundup on the Left Field stage. She has
opened for the likes of the Levellers, New Model Army, Bar Stool Preachers, The Men They
Couldn't Hang and Merry Hell amongst others and she continues to tour around the UK playing
festivals, supports and her own headline tours.
