Friday 6th January 8pm
Tuma aka Linah Rocio is best known for her spoken word track Love Letter from the album Armour&The Universe. Her solo music is as poetic as her spoken word, mixed with a voice that has often been compared to Björk and to Rickie Jee Jones, her music resembling a mixture of Joan As Policewoman, PJ Harvey and Fiona Apple. Because of personal shifts and changes the artist renamed herself TUMA - a name she channelled. Her songs are transformative and powerful, letting the listener dive deep into her being and their own. Her voice fragile and strong, dreamy and crazy. A mixture of beast and fairy.
