Acoustic Edinburgh Festival – Tue 18th Aug – Rosie Brown headline
Headline: ROSIE BROWN
with: EMILY SCOTT, ELEMENTS, DULCINEA, and SUSANNA MACDONALD
Entry: £7 (tickets from Fringe Box Office, with a limited number on the door)
Another brief reminder that we’re running every Tuesday through the festival this month, with probably the best ever line-up we’ve had.
This week’s headline act is probably the most hotly anticipated we’ve had for a long while. Paul and I have been working behind the scenes over the last few years to get ROSIE BROWN back north to play again on our bijou stage, and we’ve finally succeeded! She and her band have a cult following down south, and are no stranger to standing ovations at venues like the famed Ronnie Scott’s. A long time ago they played a month-long run at the Edinburgh Festival, garnering 5-star reviews. Rosie’s voice has been compared to Cat Power and Billie Holiday and her songwriting to Joni Mitchell and John Martyn (comparisons to the latter become all the more appropriate with Bernd Rest’s incredible guitar playing). Mojo wrote: “As fresh and enveloping as morning mist – and as disquietingly opaque – the music of Rosie Brown weaves a wondrous spell”.
It’s great, on the heels of their third album, to welcome them back to Edinburgh – don’t miss out on this rare chance to see them!
As ever, you can check Rosie and all our other artists out by following links above.
See you there!
