    THE WANDERING HEARTS | In Harmony | An Intimate Tour

    GUEST LIST FULL | Doors 19:00 | Live 19:30 | Finish 10:45

    THE WANDERING HEARTS | SATURDAY 21 AUGUST 2021 | THE IN HARMONY | AN INTIMATE TOUR | LRB DATE WAS ORIGINALLY PLANNED FOR SATURDAY 25 APRIL 2020 | RESCHEDULED TO SATURDAY 22 AUGUST 2020 | RESCHEDULE 06 MARCH 2021 | THIS TIME.....DELIGHTED THIS WILL BE THEIR FIRST DATE ON THIS TOUR AND THE FIRST LRB DATE SINCE HONEY RYDER ON 06 MARCH 2020. WHAT BETTER WAY TO GET MUSIC LIVE AGAIN. Harmony-laden folk-Americana at its best.

    The Wandering Hearts shot to the forefront of the UK folk-Americana scene with their debut album ‘Wild Silence’ which propelled them upon a remarkable journey during which they played some of America’s most storied venues. After a personal invitation from the legendary Marty Stuart, they became the first band to make their US debut at Nashville’s iconic Ryman Auditorium and then play the Grand Ole Opry in the same week. 

    An early highlight came at the UK Americana Awards, where they won the Bob Harris Emerging Artist Award and performed with Robert Plant, Mumford & Sons and Imelda May. Two years on the road followed, with sold-out headline tours, support slots for Lukas Nelson, Justin Townes Earle and Larkin Poe, opening for Tom Petty and Stevie Nicks at London's BST Hyde Park, and festival circuits across the UK and US. 

    The Wandering Hearts headed to the idyllic setting of Woodstock, NY at the start of 2020 to record their follow-up self-titled album with producers Simone Felice and David Baron, a location which freshly inspired the band to channel the roots of their sound. 

    Recent singles ‘On Our Way’, ‘Dolores’ and ‘Gold’ have seen the trio share an inspiring ray of optimism at the most challenging of times. It’s a trait that shines brightly throughout their new album (out 6 August 2021), with lyrics that speak of the powers of human connection, of always hoping for better times ahead, and of the unspoken battles that so many people face. Such messages need a sound to match, and The Wandering Hearts have again delivered. Their British take on Americana captures the energy of Jade Bird with the songcraft of Fleetwood Mac, while the trio’s vocal harmonies – lustrous, impassioned and rousing – are at the fore of the album. 

    Also on the album is the single ‘Dreams’, a song which Marty Stuart wrote with his wife, the country star Connie Smith, and gifted to The Wandering Hearts. The band joined Marty at the iconic Cash Cabin in Hendersonville to record the track.

    Catch The Wandering Hearts on their In Harmony UK Tour across August and September 2021.

    POSTPONED | HANNAH WHITE WITH BAND | EWAN MAINWOOD |Saturday 18 September 2021

    POSTPONED

     

     

    When people talk about the songs of Hannah White, they talk about passion, honesty, social conscience and pure musicality. With the release of her groundbreaking new album, that conversation is getting louder and louder.

    The London-born singer-songwriter established herself as one of the UK's freshest talents via such solo albums as 
    Whose Side Are You On? in 2016 and the 2018 follow-up Elephant Eye. The latter's charming flagship single 'In It For Love' won airplay on BBC Radio 2, 6 Music and BBC London as one of six tracks to receive radio attention. A raft of positive reviews picked up on White's singular melodic and lyrical flair and signposted the incredibly inclusive and stirring live shows that she's been playing for a decade.

    Like so many artists, Hannah was significantly impacted by the pandemic. With the 'Hannah White and the Nordic Connections' album due for release as global lockdowns were being announced in 2020, her tours both in the UK and Norway were cancelled. But this huge challenge turned into a triumph.

    Review after review heaped praise on the record's delightful, trademark Anglo-Norwegian Americana style ­– culminating in its nomination as UK Album of the Year at the 2021 UK Americana Awards, in the distinguished company of Laura Marling, Emily Barker and Robert Vincent. Airplay arrived on BBC Radio 2 and many regional BBC stations, as did official Spotify playlisting. 

    Among the critical acclaim, W21 Music called it "honest and unflinching. An emotional rollercoaster ride that never lets up." Folk and Tumble called it "a timeless classic," while for Phoenix Radio in Australia it was "cutting and powerful. A modern day Pete Seeger." Fatea magazine marvelled at "the restraint, the range, the softness, the clarity, the levels all appropriately placed in delivering this masterpiece," and Roadtracks in Germany described the set as "a Scandinavian UK-Americana miracle that beguiles the heart and soul. Touching words and excellent voice almost tear your heart apart. Already talking song of the year.”

    More recently, Hannah and Keiron Marshall teamed up again, remotely this time, with their Norwegian bandmates, Lars Hammersland (Hammond organ), Ole Ludvig Krüger (drums) and Svein Henning Berstad (vocals), now with the endorsement of two hugely revered Nashville musicians: Grammy-winning multi-instrumentalist Tim O’Brien (fiddle, mandolin, mandola & vocals) and Viktor Krauss, brother of Alison (upright bass), to record the infectiously uplifting single 'Walk Beside Me' which was picked up by two more beloved Americana greats, Buddy Miller and Jim Lauderdale, and showcased on their 'Buddy & Jim' show on the SiriusXM Outlaw channel. It won a coveted slot on the US internet station Folk Alley, and was featured on DittyTV and across the BBC network.

    While the Norwegian band won't be able to come to the UK (due to restrictions) Hannah will be playing with UK based musicians in her band.

    SEAN TAYLOR DUO SHOW | KELLY BAYFIELD TRIO with DAVID EDWARD BOOTH Saturday 30 October 2021

    GUEST LIST FULL | Doors 18:45 Live 19:15

    SEAN TAYLOR DUO SHOW | Saturday 30 October 2021
    Sean Taylor’s unique songwriting is a late night cocktail of Tom Waits, Leonard Cohen and Jack Kerouac; with a voice that is a cross between John Martyn and Van Morrison and a guitar style that sounds like an acoustic Stevie Ray Vaughan jamming with JJ Cale…His live shows fuse world class songwriting with stories from the road.
    “Articulate, compelling ... brilliant” ****Mojo Magazine

    KELLY BAYFIELD DUO | Saturday 30 October 2021
    Delighted to welcome Kelly to LRB with eternally popular David Booth
    A classic singer songwriter, modern folk & americana, via the beautiful Suffolk coast

    Kelly Bayfield’s effortless vocals have been likened to Joni Mitchell and Karen Carpenter, and her ear for “lush Stillsian harmonies” and natural talent for songwriting have put her in high demand in her home county of Suffolk and beyond. Regular appearances on BBC radio and at rootsy festivals such as Maverick & FolkEast, together with collaborations alongside Kev Walford, David Edward Booth, Honey and The Bear and New Orleans crooner Drew Young have all provided the perfect springboard for her eagerly anticipated solo album release later this year. Expect her usual “limpid clarity” and “fluid Jazz-phrasing” on Carpenter-esque songs like  ‘Hitchhiker’, and ‘John Mahoney’, alongside “moody Renaissance-style proggy folk” of ‘The Whistling Man’. A Perfect Blend of Classic Singer-Songwriter, Modern Folk & Americana.
