NXSE: Dave Sutherland/Holly Carter/Toby Carter @ The Dukes of Highgate

South East London based Americana singer-songwriter Dave Sutherland has teamed up with North London grassroots venue The Dukes of Highgate for NXSE, Dave Sutherland's Sunday Service.
Dave brings his unique fingerstyle guitar, melodic vocal and music that speaks of life, love and London to the stage.
His special guest is the wonderful, award winning HOLLY CARTER, and opening the show is singer-songwriter TOBY CARTER.
Holly Carter is an award-winning songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from Bristol, UK. Two-time recipient of ‘Instrumentalist of the Year’ at the Americana UK awards (2023 & 2024) she is widely recognised as an exceptional fingerstyle guitarist and one of the UK’s only professional female pedal steel players.
Drawing deeply from the well of the folk tradition, she harnesses an approach to song as a powerful tool for education and the preservation of legacy. Along with a show stopping approach to guitar that follows hot on the heels of the likes of Chet Atkins and John Fahey, her music weaves joyously catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics that pay homage to a diverse collection of musical and personal heroes.
Her new album ‘Leave Your Mark’ centers around a celebration and exploration of the ways we can leave our mark on the world after we’ve gone. Blending timeless storytelling with a distinct modern voice, the album showcases an impactful collection of songs that presents a truly original take on the landscape of folk and Americana. Recorded live and directly to tape at Middle Farm Studios in Devon – and accompanied by lino printed artwork designed and hand cut by Holly – it endeavours to capture a moment in time, in its most raw and honest state.
Toby Carter
Toby is a singer-songwriter originally from South East London, now living in Ramsgate. Known for his soulful voice and original heartfelt songs, Toby is a regular favourite on the South East music scene.
