Raveloe is the project of multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Kim Grant. The alias is taken from the name of a fictional village within the pages of a Mary Anne Evans (George Eliot) novel called Silas Marner about a reclusive weaver. Growing up in the small industrial town of Motherwell she found magic and escaped in the small beauties through moments of isolation and difficulty. A thread evident in songs that oscillate from heartbreak to hopefulness, exploring dualities and inspired by a fusion of folk-rock-indie. Inspired by the likes of Big Thief, PJ Harvey, The Microphones and This is The Kit you can expect moments of delicate folk inspired reflection to swelling ripples of distortion and energy.

"when one comes along who actually stands out from the pack, it’s a cause for celebration. Kim Grant, who fronts the shoegaze meets folk act Raveloe is as original an act as I have heard in many years." - God is in the TV
