THE LOST SONGWRITERS TOUR

The tour was born in January 2025, following a one-off show in the Swiss village of Ins, where four contrasting songwriters unexpectedly found common ground. What began as a single evening of music turned into long conversations, shared philosophies, and a sense of creative kinship. From that moment, the decision was made to take the collaboration on the road—and see where the songs would lead.

Now, the Lost Songwriters arrive in Switzerland from 26-28 February and the UK from 5–11 March, offering intimate performances that promise depth, atmosphere, and emotional connection rather than spectacle.

A Meeting of Four Distinct Songwriting Worlds Each artist on the tour brings a radically different approach to contemporary songwriting:

Russell Joslin (UK) represents the UK contingent with a sound that merges folk tradition and modern unease. Joslin uses folk as a lens to explore today’s fractured society, earning praise for “intense and artistically serious mental cinema” and “Americana noir” storytelling.

Adaya (CH) crafts spellbinding, early-folk-inspired songs rooted in the wilderness of her Swiss homeland. Her work blends poetic storytelling with experimental arrangements, while her ethereal vocals and woodwinds are also known from her work with pagan-folk collective FAUN . In the UK Adaya will performing together with Stephan Groth 's Hurdy-Gurdy play and vocals (also from Faun).

Bob Spring (CH) brings dark country with grit and heart. Living his songs completely, Spring balances vulnerability and rebellion through raw melodies and a voice that carries quiet authority. No excess, no banter—just deeply human storytelling.

Adele H (IT) offers a stark, minimalist contrast—primordial experimental pop built around piano and a daring, haunting voice. Her songs feel philosophical and instinctive, drawing listeners into emotional spaces that are often left unspoken.
