Forever proud to call herself a folk singer, Kate Rusby's vocals never fail to connect the heart of a song to that of her audience.

Named as one of the Top Ten Folk Voices of the Century, a Mercury Prize Winner, 6-times BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Winner and a warm, Yorkshire sense of humour to boot, Rusby has achieved an unprecedented cross-over appeal. Despite stepping into a more contemporary production on her last few albums, she has stayed true to her roots. Her cover of Manic Monday (Hand Me Down 2020) featured on the BBC Radio 2 playlist. The guests on 2022 album 30 : Happy Returns is testament to Rusby's wide appeal and include the likes of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, KT Tunstall, and Beth Nielson Chapman.

Celebrating over 30 years of touring and 22 albums including her latest beautifully stunning Christmas album, Light Years , released in December 2023, Kate and her band of merry and very talented men will be visiting us in her 50th birthday year with songs old and new.

Tour name: Kate Rusby Live at Christmas

With a brand new Christmas album, Kate rounds off 2023 and celebrates her 50th birthday in style with a Christmas tour full of warmth, sparkles and her festive music from her new and previous Christmas albums.

“Kate Rusby remains Britain’s most popular female folk singer because she has mastered the art of Christmas songs” – The Guardian

Hailed as ‘The Start of Christmas’ for many, a Kate Rusby Christmas Concert perpetuates the tradition of Yorkshire carols, specific carols still sung in the pubs of South Yorkshire.

Her happiness, humour and storytelling are a feature of Kate’s live shows branding herself as a ‘Holly Head’ – someone who loves Christmas. Joining her on stage for this unmissable evening of Christmas cheer will be, as ever, her hugely talented and intuitive band of musicians including producer and husband Damien O’Kane as well as a top-flight brass quintet affectionately known as The Brass Boys.

A folk singer at heart, she’s taken the genre to new heights appealing way beyond the folk scene and her Yorkshire roots, headlining in the UK and internationally, performing with other big names in music across genres. She has a number of TV, radio and film credits to her name as well as her own record company and festival.
