MA POLAINE’S GREAT DECLINE

Ma Polaine’s Great Decline is an award-winning band praised by Mojo Magazine for their unique blend of pop, folk, blues, and Americana. Ma Polaine’s music resonates as both comfortably familiar and refreshingly innovative, creating a truly engaging experience.

With airplay on BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio 2, and the support of Cerys Matthews, the band's genre-defying charm unfolds through songs that explore the intricacies of human connections, weaving tales of light and dark with uplifting melodies and heartfelt storytelling.

With a voice that has the jagged knife-edge quality of Karen Dalton, live, Beth Packer brings a black humour that gives the audience the chance to laugh at themselves, our human connection, love, and the complex facets of pain, with an understanding that life can go a bit wonky sometimes.

The band seeks to offer a raw, authentic portrayal of real-life experiences that will resonate with audiences from all walks of life. There’s a cathartic nature to Beth’s lyrics, songwriting, and sound that hugs the listener and draws them in.

Featuring Beth Packer (vocals, bass, guitar), Clinton Hough (guitar), and Jimmy Norden (drums).

Ma Polaine’s Great Decline have evolved a pop-folk-blues-Americana style that is warmly familiar, yet is sufficiently unhinged to keep you guessing
— Mojo Magazine
Packer’s voice has a superb range, but it is her interpretative skill that entrances, with the effortless shifts that imbue her evocative lyrics with rare emotional charge
— Morning Star
This is 21st-century music chock full of mystery and acute observation
