We’re delighted to be working with Lauren Housley & The Northern Cowboys for the first time – with special guests The 7:45s and Later Youth!

Lauren Housley & The Northern Cowboys are bringing their ‘Raisin’ The Vibe Tour’ to intimate UK venues this April and May. After a transformative trip to Alabama in September 2024 – where they recorded at the legendary Muscle Shoals Sound Studio and were deeply moved by the legacy of the Civil Rights Movement – they are set to bring the soul of Muscle Shoals, the spirit of change, and a set of brand-new, unreleased songs inspired by their profound connection to music, past and present.

Housley is an award-winning singer and songwriter hailing from Yorkshire – a young female artist and recent mother of two who has already made her mark with three independent albums and two BBC radio playlist hit singles. Housley’s innate talent of writing beautiful, engaging songs, was born from the intuitive craft of earthy storytelling and delivered with an emotive knock out vocal performance at their core.

Early 2022, she decided to focus on developing her live show and going full tilt with the addition of The Northern Cowboys to being a six-piece with key members Thomas Dibb and Mark Lewis. The live band has rapidly developed into a recording and performance led music outfit with a new sonic departure, garnering two nominations at the 2024 UK Americana Music Awards for her song High Time and Live Act Of The Year, with UNCUT describing the climate change anthem as ‘a bulldozing country-soul sound’.

Housley will be leaving a trail of joy with her ‘Rousing’ new shows, introducing songs from the next release as Lauren Housley and The Northern Cowboys and some classics. Influential blog Holler included the band in their TOP 10 artists seen at the Black Deer Festival 2023, whilst others witnessing the band referenced the performance as a UK female vocal fronted version of Nathaniel Rateliff & The Nightsweats – be prepared to be uplifted and moving those hips and leaving with some lyrics to think about.

Housley’s first three albums were Sweet Surrender in 2015, The Beauty of This Life in 2017 and latest album Girl From the North in 2021, which produced a fresh and eclectic sound around the central theme of one rediscovering herself and her roots: ‘To move forward we sometimes have to go back. I wanted to prove to myself that it doesn’t matter where you are in the world, you can make great music and have a positive impact on people’s lives. Returning to my hometown of Rotherham a few years ago, after leaving at the age of 18, seemed like the most bizarre decision I’d ever made. It was never part of my ‘plan’ but it has in fact enabled me to reassess my life and career goals and move forward in a way that feels true to myself.’

She has consistently garnered acclaim from fans, critics and fellow musicians alike. Her single Ghost Town Blues’ was playlisted by BBC Radio 2, where fans include Bob Harris OBE, whilst The Waiting Game, became Robert Elms’ favourite track of the year on his BBC Radio London Show (‘Absolutely monumental’). Rave press reviews included Q, Uncut (‘Her voice is potent and the emotional directness of her songs is estimable’) and RNR Magazine (‘Lauren Housley’s blend of material is both thrilling and tender, propelled by a voice that stirs and soothes’). Music journalist and broadcaster Paul Sexton sums it up with: ‘What I love about Lauren’s voice, and the music she makes with her stellar band, is that she brings such pure, spontaneous soulfulness to everything she touches. Both on record and on stage, she’s the real deal.’

Live, Housley was invited to perform at the 02 Arena in London as part of Bluesfest, alongside some of the artists that have inspired her, including Van Morrison and Tedeschi Trucks Band. As well as opening for Richard Hawley, John Grant, Vintage Trouble, Jack Savoretti and Van Morrison, Lauren has also performed with some of her favourite female contemporaries including Yola and Klara Soderberg (First Aid Kit).

‘One of my favourite UK artists. I really love her sound’ – Bob Harris, BBC Radio 2

‘Lauren is one of our most talented new singer songwriters, blessed with a sublime voice, and a natural rapport with audiences. Lauren plays one of the best festival opening sets this reviewer has witnessed.’ Louder Than War

Main support comes from The 7:45s. The 7:45s are an original soul collective from Manchester (UK) on a mission to produce the perfect single. Songwriter and bassist Sam Flynn formed The 7:45s, inspired by the house bands of soul labels from Motown to Big Crown The young collective, feature some of the finest musicians on the Manchester scene, and spotlighting guest vocalists such as Benjamin Lee Smith, Nicole Battick and regular collaborator Martin Connor.

Opening the show is Later Youth – the solo project of British artist and producer Jo Dudderidge.

We’re delighted to be working with Toria Wooff for the first time!

Finding splendour in shadows, Toria Wooff sings tales of the beautifully strange. Announcing the release of her beguiling self-titled debut album, her gothic approach to the folk tradition has captured the attention of any who have caught her live over the last couple of years and as the record takes listeners deeper into her bittersweet world, it’s only a matter of time before countless others will fall under her spell. Toria heads out on a headline tour this Spring to play the album in full to audiences across the UK.

Containing tales of love, loss, hope, relationships and womanhood, the album is both an exorcism of torment and an invitation to feeling only what is good. Tugging at the cloaks of contemporary folk souls Katie J Pearson and This Is The Kit, the record offers a contemporary twist on the Anglo folk tradition through a bloody cocktail of classic rock origins and transcends time as it nods to the lyrical narratives of Led Zeppelin, Fairport Convention and Townes Van Zandt – all the while infused with inspiration from her collection of gothic literature and historical texts.

Local support comes from Creepy Crawly. Creepy Crawly is the project of Bristol-born and Manchester-based musician Rachel Cawley, weaving bittersweet narratives through shimmering, multilayered songwriting. Her distinctive crystalline vocals guide listeners through ethereal dreamscapes, moments of eerie unease, and the satisfying crunch of ’90s alt-rock melancholy.

Growing up in the rural West of England, her music is, in part, inspired by a childhood soundtracked by folk revival artists and traditional British folk music. But the pull of the city was huge and, aged 18, she moved to London and submerged herself in the many worlds of music available to her there – working at venues, writing for music magazines, temping at record labels – and going to a lot of gigs. But, as it so often does, London spat her back out. And so, during a period of self-reckoning with the question of ‘how the hell did I get here?’, living a life that seemed frighteningly ordinary, she returned to writing songs – tracing out the path of how she found herself in a place she didn’t want to be – and armed with newfound hope and resilience, plotting a route back out of it.

The result of this reflective work is her debut album Like a Real Thing, which will be self-released on 30 May 2025 and draws from a diverse palette of influences including Scott Walker, Big Thief, Laura Marling, Anne Briggs, Cat Power, Breeders and Heatmiser.

We’re excited to be welcoming Sam Amidon back – this time, to St Michael’s – with special guest Yoshika Colwell.

When Sam Amidon flew to Los Angeles late in the winter of 2024 to collaborate with Sam Gendel, he had a deceptively complex plan for their session: that is, he had no real plan at all. Amidon and Gendel had long been two members of a mutual admiration society. When Amidon first saw Gendel play at his now-fabled residency at the Hollywood Italian restaurant Pace years earlier, he was wowed by Gendel’s open-ended enthusiasm and stylistic vim, plus charmed by his invitation to sit in on violin, though he didn’t know much about making ‘jazz’. Gendel, too, had been an ardent fan of Amidon’s voice and flexibility since seeing him on YouTube nearly two decades ago. Gendel even joined Amidon and the great Milford Graves for the 12-minute finale of 2017’s The Following Mountain. But what, exactly, were the New England folk musician now living in England and the pedal-hopping polyglot saxophonist going to do for the better part of a week in Gendel’s Venice home, in his ad hoc dining room studio? Neither exactly knew.

Amidon offered up two ideas. First, they could simply play, pursuing whatever ideas felt good as they jammed. Or, perhaps, they could tinker with a batch of interpretations Amidon had been building, a loose set of somewhat familiar tunes — Yoko Ono’s Ask the Elephant, Lou Reed’s Big Sky, the rapturous hymn Old Churchyard, the standard English shanty Golden Willow Tree. Gendel’s eyes and imagination lit up with the latter idea, or at the chance to help Amidon in his decades-long quest to recontextualise what it means to sing a folk song or make folk music. When Amidon left Los Angeles just days later, the bulk of Salt River – his Gendel-produced debut for River Lea Recordings / Rough Trade and a radical reintroduction to the possibilities of Sam Amidon’s music – was done.

Special guest is Yoshika Colwell. Hailing from the South East of England, Yoshika has been writing and gigging solo across the UK since she started making music in earnest in 2017 – including supporting Luke Sital-Singh, Gotts Street Park, Fionn Regan and Bears Den. Last Spring, Yoshika released her debut EP There’s A Time, which saw support from BBC 6 Music, The Line of Best Fit, Holler, Clash and The New Cue to name a few.

A captivating talent and vital new voice in the great canon of English folk music, Yoshika’s songs are often deeply personal and concerned with attempting to understand the self and others, time, nature and mortality. A life-long Joni Mitchell fan she also takes inspiration from a wide mix of artists from Gillian Welch to Linda Perhacs and John Prine to Talk Talk.

We’re delighted to welcome Shotgun Jimmie back to Manchester – with special guests Dog Daisies!

Shotgun Jimmie is a singer-songwriter/one-person-band based in Manitoba, Canada. He’s been touring regularly and releasing records on Toronto’s You’ve Changed Records since 2009.

Jimmie cut his rock & roll teeth in the early 2000s, as part of the seminal Canadian indie outfit Shotgun and Jaybird alongside Canadian indie darling Julie Doiron (Eric’s Trip). He has appeared on recordings by John K. Samson (Weakerthans), Joel Plaskett (Thrush Hermit) and By Divine Right.

His 2011 release Transistor Sister was long-listed for Canada’s Polaris Music Prize. In May 2024 Jimmie toured the UK with Mathias Kom and Ariel Sharratt from the Burning Hell. This time around, in support of his new self-titled album, Jimmie will be accompanied by Canadian cellist Leanne Zacharias.

Special guests are Dog Daisies. Dog Daisies is a widescreen indie-pop group based around the home-studio adventures of songwriter Stephen Hudson. Inspired by midnight walks, motorways and the Lancashire coast, the band have released a flurry of cinematic, lyrical records earning them airplay on BBC 6 Music and supports for bands such as The Bug Club, Divorce, Katy J Pearson and The Lovely Eggs.

They return this Spring with their latest album Reclaim, due for release on Sheffield indie label Bingo Records and the follow up to 2021’s Moonbathing. It sets Ste’s characteristic storytelling lyricism to the backdrop of the Fylde Coast and asks the question: ‘How can you reclaim your spirit when it has been eroded by death, politics, hostile change, and the weather?’

We’re delighted to be working with Jenny Don’t and the Spurs for the first time!

Based in the US Northwest, Jenny Don’t and the Spurs have spent over a decade building a global reputation as hard-working stalwarts of the Country Western scene, with dynamic music that also acknowledges their roots in garage rock and cowpunk. They will be playing their first ever Manchester show at Gulliver’s on 27 May as part of a longer European tour.

The ’Spurs just toured the UK in early February, selling out eight shows for promoting their 2024 album, Broken Hearted Blue, which is out now on Fluff And Gravy Records. They are returning with two dates at Kilkenny Roots Festival and Red Rooster Festival in Suffolk for May alongside another 30 European dates.

Broken Hearted Blue presents 10 dynamic new songs on an album that asserts itself as a standout on the scene, with its high-octane rockin’ delivery setting it apart from the herd. From the thunderous bassline of Sidewinder to the infectious melody of Unlucky Love, reminiscent of Lee Hazlewood’s 1960s style, each song possesses its own distinct charm while seamlessly upholding the album’s western essence.

Produced by Collin Hegna (Brian Jonestown Massacre, Federale), the album stands as a testament to his meticulous craftsmanship and guidance in helping the band to create a musical tapestry that highlights the talents of each member.

It also marks another significant milestone, with Buddy Weeks making his debut on drums following the loss to cancer in 2022 of drummer Sam Henry (The Wipers, Poison Idea, Napalm Beach). A devastating blow that would have halted many, the ’Spurs instead forged ahead and intensified their touring and recording activity, determined to honour his legacy. The addition of Weeks signals not only a new chapter, but also adds a fresh perspective and energy, symbolising their resilience.

Local support comes from Severe Girls. Severe Girls is the solo moniker of North West musician Andrew Richardson: drummer-come-frontman making melodic alternative indie rock with his band of brothers.

We’re delighted to be working with Lael Neale again!

Lael Neale’s minimalist drone pop draws inspiration from the Transcendentalists, the alienation of modern life, and a rich array of musical influences – ranging from Dionne Warwick and John Lennon to primitive American gospel and Spacemen 3.

Her expansive new record, Altogether Stranger, was written and recorded in the early morning quiet of Los Angeles. Clocking in at just 32 minutes, the nine-song LP covers an unexpected breadth of musical and lyrical terrain – from garage rock nursery rhymes and creation myths to Motorik dance dirges and solitary Omnichord meditations.

A brilliant lyricist, Neale has a unique ability to uncover the extraordinary within the mundane, tackling themes of polarity that recur throughout her work – country vs. city, humanity vs. technology, isolation vs. society. This album is her third collaboration with producer Guy Blakeslee who helps expand the tonal palette while staying true to Neale’s commitment to the raw immediacy and hand-made intimacy of home recording.

‘A unique, boldly weird proposition, and one that proudly carries the faint hint of tractor grease. Half of it comes on like cult 70s folk artist Karen Dalton hanging out with the Velvet Underground and Suicide, while the rest offers somewhat more modern balladry, placing her more in the world of Angel Olsen and Cat Power‘ – the Guardian

Tour support comes from Entrance. Emerging from the pre-internet post-hardcore scene of the late 90’s, Entrance (born Guy Blakeslee) began singing his lysergic blues and mystic troubadour folk in the underground venues of Baltimore and Chicago in 2002. The early 2000’s saw him touring extensively in the US, the UK  and Europe, supporting like-minded artists such as Devendra Banhart, Cat Power, Will Oldham and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Inspired in equal measure by the eerie falsetto of Skip James and the acid edged poetry of ’66 Dylan (and frizzy haired disciples like Buckley, Bolan & Barrett), Entrance was an integral voice at the vanguard of what became known as ‘freak folk,’ or ‘the New Weird America’. The first two  Entrance albums The Kingdom of Heaven Must Be Taken By Storm and Honey Moan were made in collaboration with producer Chris Coady. Originally released by Tiger Style, both are now receiving an archival reboot from the Numero Group.

Since the early days of Entrance, Blakeslee has explored a surprisingly vast array of musical identities, from the cosmic blues of 2004’s Wandering  Stranger (Fat Possum) and the 2006 heavily electrified concept album Prayer Of Death, to serving for a decade as frontman for Los Angeles psych-rock legends The Entrance Band. Book of Changes (Thrill Jockey, 2017) channeled the ghosts of Roy Orbison and Leonard Cohen, and landed him onstage in support of Spiritualized and Father John Misty. Further solo albums (as Guy Blakeslee) include 2021’s Postcards From the Edge  and 2024’s ambient opus EXTRAVISION, which emerged in the wake of a life altering brain injury during a prolonged period of self-healing through sound and music.

We’re delighted to welcome Niamh Regan back to Manchester!

With her stunning 2024 release Come As You Are, Niamh Regan has cemented herself as one of Ireland’s most distinctive songwriters. Nominated for the RTÉ Choice Prize for Irish Album of the Year, Come As You Are is a masterwork of intimate storytelling, rich arrangements, and unflinching emotional honesty. The album marks a bold evolution from her debut Hemet (2020), which garnered nominations for the RTÉ Folk Awards and the Choice Music Prize.

Come As You Are, produced by Tommy McLaughlin at Attica Studios, is an album full of vulnerability and unflinching introspection. As the title suggests, it invites listeners to embrace their true selves, confronting personal doubts, complicated relationships, and questions about life’s direction. Each track is a delicate balance of delicate folk instrumentation and expansive soundscapes.

Niamh Regan first caught the attention of listeners with her 2020 debut Hemet, a strikingly collection that showcased her gift for penning folk-tinged songs with emotional depth and reflective sincerity. That album paved the way for a whirlwind of performances across Ireland, the UK, Australia, and beyond. Opening for artists such as CMAT, Villagers, John Grant, SOAK, Patrick Watson, James Vincent McMorrow and Sam Amidon, Regan honed her live performance chops and began to embrace the joy and catharsis of sharing her music with a wider audience.

With Come As You Are, Regan’s vision grew. She sought to create a richer, more expansive sound, inspired by artists like Julia Jacklin, Caroline Rose and Wilco. The result is an album that feels both intimate and cinematic. Niamh Regan has always been a storyteller at heart, and Come As You Are proves that her voice, both literal and musical, is one that demands attention.

With Come As You Are now available worldwide and the RTÉ Choice Prize nomination in the mix, 2025 is poised to be a banner year for Niamh Regan. Niamh continues to evolve as an artist, and there’s much more to come.

Other recent notable releases include We Didn’t Know We Were Ready, a song co-written and performed by Ólafur Arnalds, Talos, Niamh Regan and Ye Vagabonds.

Local support comes from Séamus Óg. Séamus Óg is a boundary-pushing Irish musician from Carrickfergus whose roots in traditional music, storytelling, and island life shape a sound both timeless and strikingly original. Bursting onto the Manchester folk scene with his albums Best Masala Tea and Terry’s Síbín, Séamus has gone on to share stages with the likes of Brìghde Chaimbeul, Chris Brain, Ríoghnach Connolly, and Mikey Kenney.

His most recent release, Haul The Pots (out 2 May), has already earned multiple features and critical acclaim, further cementing his reputation as a distinctive new voice in contemporary folk. A key part of that voice is his rare and self-adapted instrument, the cittern, with shimmering tones, lend his music a hypnotic, otherworldly quality. Supported by BBC, RTÉ, Celtic FM, and Radio Fáilte, Séamus crafts rich, harmony-laden songs that draw listeners into a dreamlike world — where tales of land, love, and longing unfold with quiet power and poetic charm.

We’re delighted to be working with Basia Bulat for the first time – plus special guest Bryde!

Basia Bulat is a singer-songwriter living in Montreal, Canada. She offers both a distinctive voice and artistry that pulls as much from gospel and soul as it does from classic folk. In addition to her skills as a powerhouse vocalist, Bulat is an accomplished multi-instrumentalist, recording and performing on electric guitar, piano, autoharp, ukulele, bass and charango.

Her new album Basia’s Palace, mixed by Tucker Martine (Beth Orton, Neko Case, The National) and with string arrangements by Grammy-nominated composer Drew Jurecka (Dua Lipa, Metric, Alvvays), is set to be released on 21 February 2025.

Basia’s Palace got its start in 2022. A new home, a new family, a pause: the singer was finally finding time to hear her own thoughts, to think about old stories, to boot up her Nintendo to play Dragon Warrior 4. It brought to mind anecdotes Bulat had heard about Leonard Cohen – how he used to do his best writing at three or four a.m., before his kids woke up, when he’d sit and toy with his Casio’s presets. Now it was Bulat sneaking down to play RPGs or to make music on her MacBook, listening for the spirit-world at a time when the veil felt thinnest. The songs she was creating didn’t feel like anything she had recorded before – MIDI soundscapes that floated and gleamed, like hidden levels above (or below) the action.

The album that emerged from all this – that started in dawn-kissed synth instrumentals, lyrics scribbled down in a Hayao Miyazaki notebook – is the softest and most searching of her career. Basia’s Palace is like a time-travel score, with Bulat akin to Chrono Trigger’s intrepid adventurer, going back into the past to shape the events of the future. Throughout, Bulat pays tribute to the magic of creation and the spellwork of performance. This is the truest location of Basia’s Palace: not just the Mile End jam-space where she recorded much of this LP; not just her home, her family, or her searching spirit. But the moment itself – the one that happens on-stage, or in the instant of creation – when a song leaves Basia’s heart and leaps onto her lips.

Basia’s talent has also been recognised at scale: her songs have been adapted for major performances with symphony orchestras, and she has been invited to perform at prestigious tributes to Leonard Cohen, Daniel Lanois, Nick Cave and The Band. Since releasing her debut, she has shared the stage with artists like St Vincent, Sufjan Stevens, Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, The National, Michael Kiwanuka, Daniel Lanois, Beirut, Destroyer, US Girls, Jim James and more. She’s been featured on NPR’s Tiny Desk Concerts, performed #LateShowMeMusic Series on the Late Show with Stephen Colbert, and on Later with Jools Holland, and received support from The Needle Drop, The New York Times and more. Bulat is a three-time Polaris Music Prize finalist and has been nominated for five JUNO Awards.

Special guest is Bryde. Bryde, aka Sarah Howells, is a woman and an electric guitar, playing fierce and fragile songs. Swaying from vulnerable to uncompromising within one verse and chorus, Bryde’s music is honest and furiously authentic. Fans have compared the music to acts as varied as Stevie Nicks, The Cranberries, Jeff Buckley, Lucy Dacus and even Taylor Swift.

Intrigued by psychology and the inner workings of relationships, Bryde’s songs hold close a defiant and life-affirming quality. Described as being about ‘entangling and unravelling’ they move from tender and delicate, to tough and unforgiving. Bryde established her ethereal indie-rock sound early on, working with producers such as Jolyon Thomas (Royal Blood) and Bill Ryder-Jones (Saint Saviour). Over the course of three albums Bryde has opened for Rufus Wainwright, played Green Man and Latitude festivals, sold-out several London headliners, and toured Europe and the US.

Bryde’s third album Still, released in July 2021, was nominated for the Welsh Music Prize. Since then Bryde has released a steady stream of songs from covers of the Tori Amos classic Silent All These Years and The National’s Brainy to recent release, Change Your Mind EP.
