From the crossroads of country, folk & bluegrass, acclaimed American singer-songwriter Rachel Harrington is a roots musician in the purest sense whose unique artistry captures the deep links between country, gospel and soul. Her songs are a primer in Americana, telling personal and mythical stories from the American West. Championed by Bob Harris of Radio 2, her two acclaimed albums hit the top spot of the Euro-Americana Chart. Rachel will be performing with master guitarist and ex-Lindisfarne hitmaker Rod Clements whose consummate musicianship and illustrious folk-roots credentials ensure the perfect accompaniment to Rachel’s haunting songs. “Scary bluegrass, Gothic tracks on an inspiringly original album.” Q “The best debut since Gillian Welch’s ‘96 Revival.” Ctrl. Alt. Country “Brilliant … a leading contender for Album of the Year.”
