The Blackheart Orchestra are multi-award winning, multi-instrumentalists Chrissy Mostyn and Rick Pilkington.

They comprise a two person ‘orchestra’ playing up to 13 instruments in their unique live show. From their onstage ‘musical space station’ they create highly emotional modern rock music featuring a multitude of sounds and atmospheres from acoustic and electric guitars, bass and bowed guitar to piano, organ, vintage synthesisers, omnichord, melodica and electric percussion.

The Blackheart Orchestra have been described as a modern day Pink Floyd with influences from as far afield as Kate Bush, Portishead and Cocteau Twins to modern composers Steve Reich and Philip Glass. They combine their folk and rock roots with electronica and classical with Genesis founder Steve Hackett calling their music “Powerful and inspiring” and Motorhead’s Phil Campbell declaring it “F****** beautiful”.

Their last two albums both achieved Top 20 positions with latest album Hotel Utopia reaching #13 in the Official UK Rock Chart and winning Best British Album and Best Song in the USA Progressive Rock Awards where singer Chrissy Mostyn was awarded Best Female Vocalist. The Blackheart Orchestra made six Best Albums of 2022 lists in the UK.
