Live & Local - Foxpalmer with Paul Nowak, Dear Wife and Yung Sam
25th JULY - 7.30PM (DOORS OPEN 7PM), TICKETS £10
Foxpalmer will make their Live & Local debut with a unique blend of rock, Americana style folk and lush indie, their sound striking and captivating as it is different.
Their unique sound, stunning original music and compelling live shows have seen them perform a number of tours as well opening for chart topping acts such as Scottish Pop Artist Sandi Thom indie rockers Dodgy, Bluetones frontman Mark Morris and three jaunts around the UK with award winning Prog trio Blackheart Orchestra. They’ve additionally appeared at numerous festivals including Celtic Connections in Glasgow (twice), Coventry’s Godiva Festival and Cambridge Rock Festival.
Their 2025 is lining up to be exciting as they performed on the Mainstage this May along with The Undertones at Darwen Live, as well as the How The Light Gets In Festival and Cambridge Rock Festival again. They are also back on tour with The Blackheart Orchestra for their autumn tour as well as supporting them for some of their winter/spring tour dates kicking off in February.
Foxpalmer is currently working on their long-awaited debut album ‘Dark Tides’ which is set to be released mid-2025. There was an impressive industry response for the first two singles ‘Wanted’ and ‘Forever’, the latter featured on the cover-mounted CD of international music magazine Fireworks, as well as widespread and plentiful airplay. New single ‘That Way’ has already caused a lot of interest and the band are embarking on another fourteen date UK tour to promote both the single and the forthcoming album which started this January, opening for No1 Scottish Artist Sandi Thom.
