Aespeniða
First single - ‘gyo’ - launches September 24th 2026
Aespenitha are an acoustic duo performing experimental folk, comprising Barry Nisbet (vocals, fiddle and guitar) and Miriam Iorwerth (marimba and percussion).
Their inspiration is drawn from the fringes of geography, music, human experience, and language – including Barry's native Shaetlan, the lost Shetland Norn, and accented English.
Miriam's background as a technologist and the duo's shared fascination with experimentation, combined with ancient melodies, styles and languages, gives their practice a retro-futuristic aspect.
