Blue Rose Code (duo) + Hannah White
Black Deer Live and Brighthelmstone are delighted to bring you the best of UK Americana to the Sound Lounge in Sutton - Blue Rose Code Duo and Hannah White Duo. This is destined to be a highlight of the year.
Blue Rose Code will be performing a very rare duo show in one of the finest grass roots venues in South London. A headliner this year at Cambridge Folk Festival and one of the best Americana live acts around
Ross Wilson aka Blue Rose Code writes songs straight from – and to - the heart. Exploring love, loss, exile, addiction, hope and faith in a deeply personal way, they blend folk, Americana, jazz, soul and pop influences into something completely unique.
Bright Circumstance, the long-awaited sixth album, gives free rein to the brilliance of the full Blue Rose Code touring band and was released in May to universally positive reviews and was longlisted for the Scottish Album Of The Year Award:
“Jubilant, prayerful, compassionate, Caledonian soul maestro Ross Wilson’s latest iteration of his Blue Rose Code band sees his songs bursting with heart” - ***** The Scotsman
“A set of almost religious intensity and sincerity. Wilson makes widescreen soul in the spirit of Van Morrison, and was full of the holy fire of live performance." - The Times
"One of the greatest live acts around right now...do yourself a favour and go. - " Americana UK
Blue Rose Code will be joined by another exceptional live act, Hannah White.
Hannah White began 2023 standing on the winner's podium at the Americana Music Association UK Awards, as a hugely popular winner for UK Song of the Year with the goosebump-inducing 'Car Crash.' But the London-based singer-songwriter is one of those artists who is always about the next thing, and the the exciting new album Sweet Revolution has gained rave reviews and is proof of this.
