ANGIE PALMER (Band)

The Spinning Top · Stockport

Described by Bob Harris as “one of Britain’s greatest singer-songwriters”, Angie’s music has been dubbed ‘English Americana’ and whilst she has been compared to Bob Dylan and Joni Mitchell, she is actually like no-one else. When you listen to the depth, scope and sensitivity of her songs, you immediately recognize someone whose singular talent has been nurtured by her own extraordinary travelling life. Angie has been playing and singing all her life. From busking her way round Europe at 18 to playing at Glastonbury Festival, she gathers fans where ever she plays. With her striking looks and commanding stage presence she creates a musical force that is hard to ignore. Female guitarists are rare, those who play as well as Angie are rarer still. Angie’s voice encompasses the blues growl of Janice Joplin through to the clear high tones of Joni Mitchel. She can be seen throughout the UK and Europe playing as a solo artist, duo with her husband and writing partner Paul Mason, or working with her full band. FULL BAND SHOW TONIGHT Support - tbc Doors 3.30pm / Show from 4pm

Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast deliver gritty rock & roll soaked in deep roots and blues influences and Rolling Stone describes commanding lead singer Caitlin Krisko as “one of the best-kept vocal secrets of the Southeast”. Since their transformational rebrand in 2021, the band has built a fiercely loyal following across the US and UK, earning critical acclaim and major festival slots for their electrifying, emotionally charged performances. In 2024, the band took a bold creative leap with their self-produced EP Blueprints, a soulful, anthemic collection that landed playlist placements, radio support, and praise for its raw vulnerability. The single “Haunted By You” topped Spotify’s “Blues Ballads” playlist, while their upcoming full-length album Heirloom (out spring 2026) builds on that momentum with a waterfall release of singles throughout the year. With past support slots for legends like Mavis Staples, Marcus King, Blackberry Smoke, Samantha Fish, Robert Randolph, and Margo Price, the band con...
