BIMM Brighton alumni Ben Richards and Georgia Train are Bitter Ruin, a duo formed over a love of acts like Nick Cave and St Vincent.
Their eclectic sound has earned a loyal following, and they attracted £20,000 in Kickstarter funding for ‘Waves’, their debut album. They’ve toured with self-professed fan Amanda Palmer (The Dresden Dolls), gaining accolades from The Guardian and counting Stephen Fry and Tim Minchin among their fanbase.
