-

Susannah Clegg is a Lancaster-based singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist. Raised on the blues, Susannah fell in love with bluegrass and Americana after joining string-band ‘The Long Nights’. Her recent work as a solo artist is a powerful combination of impressive vocals, thoughtful lyricism and acoustic guitar. Currently working on her debut EP of original songs inspired by Americana and classic country music, Susannah is also known for her ‘spine-tingling’ renditions of American roots standards.

-

With a voice and perspective that seems beyond his 29 years, and a collection of honest, heartfelt songs that mirror and connect with an audience, Paul Armer is a singer-songwriter that deserves to be heard. Taking inspiration from various genres including bluegrass, country, folk, and artists such as Billy Strings, Jason Isbell, Tony Rice, and Bruce Springsteen, his sound resides where these influences meet.

Due to his increasingly deep love of bluegrass music, Paul pushes his playing abilities and voice with every live performance. His sets incorporate his own original songs and traditional tunes, to create a performance that feels fresh but hints at the origins of the genres that influence him.

-

Amy Rae is an acoustic singer/songwriter with a country, folky twist. She writes her songs to give a positive message and lift the spirit of the listener, whilst bringing an element of escapism and dreamy ideals. She just released her new single, 'Young at Heart' and is now working on her debut album, to be released in the Spring of next year.
