Event information

Jaywalkers are a UK-based acoustic powerhouse trio blending bluegrass, country, folk and Americana with blistering fiddle, flame-fingered mandolin, powerhouse bass and tight three-part harmony. Their 2025 album Move On cements their virtuosic craft, charm and modern roots flair.
Since emerging on the UK folk scene with her 2022 debut album ‘Dwelling by the Weir’, Ellie Gowers has captivated audiences with songs rooted in folklore, ecology, and the nuanced stories of her hometown, Warwick. Lauded by The Guardian as “full of delicacy, precision, and gentle delight,” the album established her as a compelling new presence on the UKtouring circuit.
