Charge at Grow: Behind the Music with Sister and James Józef
Two years after their first collaboration, Guildhall School returns to Grow for Charge, a free summer showcase spotlighting some of the most exciting student talent from the Electronic & Produced Music (EPM) department.
In line with Grow’s ethos of supporting the local music scene and platforming emerging artists, this special night will feature a dynamic line-up of live bands, electronic artists and DJs. It reflects both the diversity of the Guildhall cohort and Grow’s eclectic programming. Expect original music spanning alt-folk, experimental electronica, cinematic alt-pop and more.
Ahead of the show on Monday 24 June, we caught up with two of the featured artists, Sister (siblings Sonny and Sadie) and James Józef, to learn more about their creative process, musical influences, and why grassroots venues matter.
