Forged from the political disillusionment of a generation of Tory rule,folk-rock cult hero and queer icon Grace Petrie returns to UK venues thisyear with the protest song firmly back in her heart. Long renowned forher razor sharplyricism and the joyful, welcoming nature of her stunninglive shows, Petrie smashed the UK charts with latest album BuildSomething Better. Produced by Frank Turner and packed with full-hearted modern folk anthems, it shot to the top of both the folk andtheUK download chart, cementing her status as one of Britain’s mostbeloved songwriters.

Grace Petrie has a unique takes on life, love and politics, and the warmth and wit with which they are delivered, having won over an army of loyal fans across the alternative, folk, political and comedy scenes. She’s toured to arenas with Frank Turner, supported comedians Robin Ince, Josie Long and Hannah Gadsby, and has done a prestigious live session on the BBC Radio 2 Jo Whiley Show. Her frequent festival appearances have included Latitude and Cambridge Folk Festival. In 2019 she played to a packed The Acoustic Stage at Glastonbury Festival followed by sold out dates across her October ’19 tour.
Her current album, ‘Queer As Folk’, was released in Sept ’18 and was a Mojo magazine top 10 Folk Album of the Year.
‘She’s the urgent, pulsing, compassionate talent this world desperately needs.’ The Observer
‘She writes the sort of songs you want to pin the lyrics of on your bedroom wall, or on the office door, to remind you and everyone else who might read them what is important and true’ Buzz Magazine
