Grammy Award-winning singer/songwriter/multi-instrumentalist Amanda Shires has made an extraordinary career out of pursuing her deepest instincts and passions.

Since getting her start playing fiddle with the legendary Texas Playboys at the young age of 15, she has brought her nuanced songwriting and boundless originality to a series of critically acclaimed solo albums, collaborated with the likes of John Prine and Justin Townes Earle, toured with such acts as Todd Snider, and earned the 2017 Emerging Artist of the Year prize from the Americana Music Association (AMA).

Amanda is also a member of Jason Isbell’s 400 Unit and founder of The Highwomen – a supergroup she performs in along with Maren Morris, Natalie Hemby, and Brandi Carlile.  The band hit #1 on Billboard’s Top Country Albums chart with their self-titled 2019 debut.

Support from

Jarrod Dickenson

Jarrod Dickenson is a guitarist, singer, songwriter and producer, originally from Waco, Texas, now based in Nashville. Having accrued a devoted audience on both sides of the Atlantic with his initial, critically acclaimed releases, Dickenson has gone on to captivate audiences across the globe, sharing stages with a slew of legendary acts including Don McLean, Bonnie Raitt and Jools Holland.

After a baptism of fire in the world of the major labels, Jarrod Dickenson now exists as a fiercely independent artist, a look that suits him well and allows his creativity to follow whatever path it damn well pleases. Nowhere is this attitude better encapsulated than in the bluesy rock and roll growl of his uncompromising new album BIG TALK, released February 2023 on Hooked Records.
