midori jaeger

Cellist, composer and vocalist midori jaeger launches her upcoming EP (Un)planted with a full-band performance in the intimate surroundings of St Pancras Old Church.

midori jaeger has toured the UK and Europe as a solo artist, with performances at Union Chapel, Queen Elizabeth Hall and EartH Hackney, and has travelled the world as a collaborative musician, appearing at Berliner Philharmonie, Royal Albert Hall, Barbican Hall and Royal Festival Hall. This show marks a special moment: an intimate unveiling of new music that brings her story, sound and band together in one space.

Born in Japan and raised partly in the UK, midori returned to Tokyo at sixteen before moving alone to London two years later. Each relocation was a replanting - a search for new soil. With family in Tokyo and New York and no fixed roots in the UK, she found her sense of home through music.

(Un)planted is a musical painting of midori’s uprooting. Like the cello that was once a tree unplanted from its soil, the music depicts her own journey of uprooting through the multiplicities of mixed heritage, sexuality, growing up across different continents, partneredness, aloneness, to an eventual replanting and rootedness in the earth. (Un)planted is the first part of a two-part EP. The counterpart (Re)planted is due summer 2026.
