‘Broken folk’ duo Lunatraktors are choreographer and percussionist Carli Jefferson (she/her), and vocalist and researcher Clair Le Couteur (they/them). Reimagining British folk through a shared love of drum’n’bass, triphop, art rock and post-punk, Lunatraktors attract passionate fans at festivals, galleries, museums, theatres and queer cabarets.
Le Couteur’s self-taught overtones and 3+ octave range combine with Jefferson’s hybrid of tap dance, flamenco and tonal percussion, developed after touring with STOMP (2001-2004). The pair turned heads when their percussion-and-vocals debut This Is Broken Folk made MOJO’s Top Ten Folk Albums of 2019, and again when second studio album The Missing Star reached MOJO’s #2 in 2021.
Lunatraktors are unsigned and DIY. They received the British Music Collection LGBTQ+ Composer Award 2021 & George Butterworth Award 2022, and EFDSS Alan James Bursary 2022
