End of the Road Festival 2019 - Penya and Mary Lattimore

Nick Luscombe with live music from Late Junction’s stage at the End of the Road festival including ethereal harpist Mary Lattimore and Penya's percussive Afro-Latin electronica.

We continue our showcase from End of the Road festival in Wiltshire, where Late Junction staged an evening of broad-minded, eclectic music in the warm embrace of the festival’s music-loving crowd. Nick Luscombe presents live music highlights from our two remaining acts.

American harpist Mary Lattimore introduces her innovative approach to the instrument, combining loops and ambient electronics to create a beatific, layered meditation on the traditional harp sound.

And finally, the percussion-driven Afro-Latin electronica group Penya, a London-based ensemble with musical roots in Latin America and North Africa. Penya love to experiment with deep grooves, intricate pulses and vibrant vocals to create a tribal, alternative dancefloor.
