Moore and Fairhall are a folk-jazz accordion and violin duo who bring together Indian Ragas, American Folk and jazz from all eras, resulting in music that is lyrical, passionate and highly rhythmic.

Adam and Olivia met when they were selected for Edition VI of Serious’ prestigious ‘Take Five’ Artist Development Scheme and this duo is the result of their shared interest in a jazz approach to folk and world traditions.

Much in demand for her intoxicating, microtonally-infected playing style, Olivia has recently worked with the Srishti Dance company and with Milapfest’s Indo Jazz Club band.

“Nourished by Indian and Jazz traditions, but with an elegance that comes from her classical training, Olivia Moore’s violin has an Eastern tang which is genuinely entrancing” – Manchester Evening News.

Adam’s accordion style incorporates ostinato baselines, innovative rhythmic bellow techniques and free-flowing melodic improvisation. “Adam is a total star” – Independent on Sunday.
