Poppy Ackroyd is a London-born, Edinburgh-based composer, pianist, and violinist. She plays her instruments conventionally, but also with drumsticks, e-bows, picks, and all ten fingers to pluck and scrape, creating unusual timbres and textures while using the inside and outside of her instruments. She then manipulates and multi-tracks her sounds via a computer and a live microphone. Despite the physical approach, her music is intricate, delicate, and lyrical, as evidenced by her 2012 debut, Escapement, and Feathers in 2014. While 2017's Sketches was performed completely solo, 2018's Resolve featured contributions from Manu Delago, Jo Quail, and Mike Lesirge. It also inspired a collection of remixes, 2019's Resolve Reimagined. 2021's Pause marked a return to solo recording and inspired a remix EP titled Pause (Reworked) the following year. In 2023, the four-track Pause Reimagined featured collaborations with Anne Muller, Alexandra Hamilton-Ayers, Hinao Omori, and Christina Vantzou. ~ Thom Jurek
