Eleanor Grant and Gus McQuade thrilled the audience at the Proms Launch Event in 2024. They formed their duo while undergraduates at the Royal Academy of Music, exploring multiple genres, from the Renaissance to the present day, embracing folk and jazz influences. Eleanor and Gus have written arrangements for their own special and unusual combination of instruments. They made their debut at Wigmore Hall in 2023 and have since performed at various festivals and concert venues. Today they play songs that revel in the love of nature, including from their album Seasons in Time.
