Amanita Grove presents a journey through the woods, uncovering the secrets of trees and hidden life within the forest through sound, storytelling and spoken word. Weaving an intricate path beneath the canopy, Amanita Grove reveals insights into the (super)natural world, guiding the audience through seasonal changes, life cycles, the elements and folklore.

Amanita Grove is principally a Latin, Folk and Neo-Soul duo (Cheryl Silvawood and Jules Moberly) based in Hartland, North Devon, bringing soulful vocals, Spanish guitar, loops and lo-fi rhythms. Their original music and covers hold space for nature, truth and courage. With Cheryl’s background in wildlife conservation and as an ancient and veteran tree specialist, coupled with Jules’ extensive experience as a woodsman, they look to spread their #musicmycelium, bringing people of similar frequencies together with the love of music and nature.

For their second year at Barnstaple Fringe, Amanita Grove will perform as a trio, with Cheryl on vocals, spoken word, percussion and drone flute; Jules on Spanish guitar and loops; and reputed multi-instrumentalist Dave Smale on vocals, double bass and koto.
