Twelfth Day

Catriona Price and Esther Swift (AKA Twelfth Day) are touring musicians and composers who currently, due to COVID-19, find themselves off the road for the longest time in their careers thus far. So they decided to create a space for musicians from around the world to share how they’re dealing with all this time at home. It's lockdown! It's weird! Join us!
