Grace Petrie - 16th October

14+ only. Under 16's must be accompanied by an adult. No refunds will be given for incorrectly booked tickets.  ** Please note - this is an all-seated show ** For a decade and a half, Grace Petrie has been one of the UK’s most urgent and passionate songwriters. Coming of age amidst the coalition government, her politically charged folk music quickly gained national attention and propelled her to the main stages of folk festivals from Cambridge to Vancouver to the Blue Mountains of Australia. Characterised by razor-sharp lyricism and the unmistakable passion of her stage presence, her live shows have become synonymous for fans with a unique atmosphere of hope and solidarity, with LGBTQ anthem Black Tie racking up 1.5 million streams and providing a soundtrack of expression for young queer folks all over the world.   An irrepressible live performer, Grace has toured relentlessly to build loyal audiences in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, as well as providing tour support for Billy Bragg, Frank Turner and Emmy-winner Hannah Gadsby. She has appeared on ITVX, Channel 4, Sky Arts, BBC Radio 2’s Folk Show and been a regular guest on The Guilty Feminist podcast, and performed live BBC sessions for Tom Robinson (6music) and Jo Whiley (Radio 2). The release of 2024’s Build Something Better, produced by Frank Turner, topped the UK folk chart and cemented her place as one of Britain’s most respected independent artists.   In 2026 she is exploring the stripped back nature of folk songwriting once again, performing a show of two halves that encompasses both an intimate solo set, and a career-retrospective full band performance featuring songs from across her sixteen-year catalogue.
