Mica Bernard and Clodagh (Foreign Exchange) LIVE at 21Soho Below, London | An acoustic 'listening' music venue operated by TALENTBANQ
Join Mica Bernard (UK) and Clodagh (IRL) for the first ever Foreign Exchange night. Born from a dream to travel the world with her music Mica Bernard has begun a project where she aims to get Grass Roots and Indie artists to exchange gigs in different countries and cities.
“The idea is to create change in the way artists tour, bringing the control back to us and creating opportunities to reach audiences who are further afield."
The name comes from the traditional idea of a student foreign exchange programme combined with the word play of ‘For Change’ as it is my goal to create a community of artists who aren’t in competition with one another but celebrate each other's art and exchange opportunities, ideas and experiences. It is equally important to create a community audience who feels connected, held and uplifted by the atmosphere of the night, the music and the spoken word of artists from (eventually) all around the world. Foreignness should be exciting and exchanged so we can enrich our lives with the beauty of difference. We all deserve to live creative, cultured and connected lives. It all starts on the 12th August 2026 at 21 Soho from 7pm, there are only 40 tickets so don’t miss your chance to be a part of the Foreign Exchange movement. Thank you to TALENTBANQ for making the first UK show possible.
Mica Bernard (Pron Mee-sha) is an Indie Singer-Songwriter whose powerful and warm vocal breathes a soulfulness into her Folky sound. Sunny yet stirring her lyrics are honest and invite you into a relatable, witty and heartfelt space. Taking influence from the likes of KT Tunstall, Joan Armatrading and Florence and the Machine.
Mica has a background in delivering therapeutic music sessions to NICU’S (Neonatal Intensive Care Units) and has just been featured on BBC Radio 4’s Illuminated ‘Lost in Lullabies’ Documentary. That won Silver at the ARIA awards this year! The Lullaby sessions constantly inspire her to create music that connects people.
As a performer Mica exudes a cool calmness that is captivating to watch. Gripping audiences in and around London and beyond including a run of sold out shows (2026) with Sofar Sounds, The Green Note and The Boileroom supporting Will Varley. "My music is taken to the next level when you see and hear it performed live. I sing about race, love, identity, change and through all of these moments we have in life there is nothing more powerful than connection. This is why as an artist it is my priority to perform live.”
Clodagh is a singer songwriter from Cork, Ireland. Her music is known for her haunting vocals and her storytelling. Her debut EP ‘In All of Your Glory’ was released in 2019 and since then she has released a number of singles including ‘The Art of Letting Go’ and ‘All You Do Is’ which she performed on Six O’Clock Show as her debut TV appearance. Clodagh’s passion for music is palpable and she is currently hidden away writing her next project and excited to get into the studio and back on stage with new music soon.
