GET THE DATES RESERVED!!

**TO BE RESCHEDULED IN 2024** ANNE McCUE | Saturday 29 July 2023 | Annie says... I don't think I will make it over this year. Everything I am doing is in slow motion whilst the world speeds on! I just can't catch up. The first single hasn't even appeared yet (!) and I'm still finishing recording the new song (written with Amelia a while back, we rewrote the lyrics.) I just don't get a lot of time to work on my music these days. (Sunday afternoons, mostly.) Not complaining! Just explaining. I don't see much point in going to the UK or Australia until the new album is out. Early-ish next year will be better. Sorry for dragging my feet but it is difficult to get all the ducks quacking at the same time! Cheers and much gratitude. Anne :-)

QUOTES "The hospitality at LRB for both Artists and audiences is unparalleled" "Each month just gets better and better roll on the next one!" ATH. "Both Reb and Jasmine were absolutely stunning" Shaun M " What a wonderful evening of music Kate Ellis and Andy and Mim Grey and her band gave us. Such complementary performances - Kate Ellis with her gentle music and Mim Grey with her effortless singing but both performances coming from within them" PAUL ROBERTS "Well there certainly is no let up in the quality of music at LRB, what a night of music" "We greatly enjoyed our first visit to LRB, it was a lovely atmosphere, the performances-such clear sound-were brilliant, with food as well! We shall be back." THANK YOU PAUL R and CHRIS R "We were so lucky to be at this gig - Live at Little Rabbit Barn is an oasis of music and joy, thank you" M.B. KELLY "Thanks for another great evening. Hannah and Gus were superb" STEVE WILDING

ABI MOORE | Saturday 02 September 2023 | It's been 9 years since Abi’s last, critically-acclaimed studio album "Amoeba & Stone" and she's back with a brand new sound. “Impactful, gritty, and above all, brimming with conviction. Abi's stripped back, stomp and holler sound instantly took us to KT Tunstall, while her styling and rootsy, distorted Americana guitar twangs have a delicious White Stripes flavour."

ROBERT VINCENT | TRIO SHOW | Saturday 07 October 2023 | END OF YEAR SHOW | AMERICANA MUSIC ASSOCIATION UK's 2021 UK Artist of the YEAR and 2021 UK Album of the YEAR | Robert Vincent from Liverpool has been one of the most acclaimed new voices in Americana, Country and Folk. Having received the inaugural Emerging Artist Award from ‘Whispering’ Bob Harris in 2016 – who described Vincent as “absolutely magnetic”, Robert was then invited onto BBC4’s ‘Old Grey Whistle Test: For One Night Only’. That performance marked a real breakthrough for Vincent, establishing him as one of the UK’s leading lights in Americana and propelling him to #1 in the iTunes Country chart.
