After three critically acclaimed albums in a row, Seattle’s country soul sensation Rachel Lyn Harrington heads for the hills with her 4th CD, a collection of all-new all-original old school country ballads, western honkytonk swing and early rock n’ roll. She’s wrangled up three other gals for this tour of UK, the band comprised of bass, drums, fiddle and guitar. The live show will include a set of the girls’ favorite country and rockabilly covers to boot.

Rachel Harrington has toured tirelessly since the release of her 2007 debut, The Bootlegger’s Daughter (Four Stars, Mojo), her follow-up in 2008, City of Refuge (inspiringly original! Q), and 2011′s Celilo Falls (Four Stars, Mojo, Q, The Irish Times). She’s played major festivals throughout Europe and the US, made three live appearances on BBC’s legendary Bob Harris Show, and reached millions of listeners through airplay at Starbucks. A 2011 winner in Merlefest’s esteemed songwriting contest (previous winners include Gillian Welch and Tift Merritt), this is Harrington’s 6th annual tour of the UK but her very first with a full band. Not to be missed!
