LAUREN HOUSLEY AND THE NORTHERN COWBOYS | Saturday 31 May 2025 | award-winning singer and songwriter hailing from Yorkshire.

I really love her sound”

BELLE ROSCOE | Saturday 31 May 2025 | Brother-Sister duo, Matty and Jules radiate a unique and mesmerising chemistry.

EVE SELIS | Saturday 19 July 2025 Hugely thrilled to host an eighth LRB show for EVE and the first since 2019. She has a NEW ALBUM Dark Sky Blue which is a collection of songs EVE wrote during the darkest time of her life, wanting to heal through music and find her way back to the light. Eve says "many of these songs came from journaling from the years of trying to understand what will never be understood to the decision to choose love and walk out of that darkness, one step in front of the other, one breath at a time until I could surrender and let Grace help me find a way towards healing and hope again.

Travelling troubadour Sorrel Nation brings a soulful mix of folk-rock to country and engages audiences with emotive lyrics, 70s inspired style and a voice full of soul that can truly open the heart. “Sorrel’s voice is off the scale stunning” (Gill Tee, Co-founder Black Deer Festival)

ANGEL SNOW Saturday 11 October 2025 | Delighted to welcome ANGEL back to LRB with Joe Wilkins (Elles Bailey) on guitar. Quote from American Songwriter “Her songs, which were played to perfection by her all-acoustic band, have an air of magic to them — at times sounding like Gillian Welch mixed with Sarah Mclachlan; other times, like an Appalachian Fiona Apple or Jeff Buckley…Watching Snow on this night, on the famed Ryman stage, it felt like a star was born.”

One of our favourite pictures from the LRB archive. The coming together of three amazingly talented artistes from US, NZ and UK was truly an alignment of good fortune and fate that will be hard to recreate. Can't believe this was October 2018. Where do the years go.

Everyone keep well, stay safe, have grace (thank you Elles so well put) and please look out for those less fortunate. Best wishes from us all at Little Rabbit Barn
