Long bio
Folkestone musicians Dan Addison and Si Norton are forestfloor, an indie-folk duo with a deliberately minimalist approach. Even their instruments are as unassuming as possible; simple 3/4 size travel guitars normally recommended to young children.
The duo have developed a rigorous co-writing process in the search for creative alchemy from their one-take unplugged format. The resulting music feels raw and direct even when thematically cryptic or nebulous, with nods towards Bon Iver, Fairport Convention, Dirty Projectors, Adrianne Lenker and Radiohead.
Quotes
The phrase ‘less is more’ is almost a three-word manifesto for forestfloor. We embrace our minimal resources. It’s fun to try to put two guitars and two voices together in a new way that sounds both surprising and satisfying.
