The Lonnings

Bex Mather (guitar, vox), Catherine Reding (accordin, violin, vox) and Dave Camlin (guitar, vox) are a trio of acoustic musicians from the north of England making music together since 2024. We make gentle music for troubled times, original songs with interweaving harmonies and delicate arrangements. An oasis of calm and beauty and an antidote to the hustle and bustle of busy lives.

Our extended line-up includes Paul Susans (bass) and Bren Murphy (percussion) for richly exquisite chamber folk.

Drop us a line dave@davecamlin.com if you want to chat about gigs, concerts, projects or anything else.

Here’s a wee snippet of what we sound like. We recorded this live to a stereo mic in Blackhall Mill Communtiy Centre.
