About

The Dreaming Spires’ debut, Brothers in Brooklyn, was inspired by their time in Annie’s home borough, while Keating herself has become a "staple of the contemporary Americana scene" in the UK, championed by the legendary Bob Harris. Since Jamie Dawson (drummer for The Dreaming Spires) also tours as part of The Annie Keating Band, the musical chemistry should be seamless.

With the Spires’ Robin and Joe Bennett bringing sibling harmonies and jangle, and Annie bringing gritty folk-rock with her storming band, also featuring Joe Coombs and Scott Warman, each show with these two acts will feel like a Friday night gig regardless of the day, leaving the audience in a much better mood than when they arrived!

When they test-drove this combination last year, both acts got rave write-ups from the local paper, which called it “a great night of American-inspired music”. Now the show is going nationwide, and rumour has it some special collaborations are in the works. Don’t miss out on an unforgettable night of equal parts heart-on-sleeve songwriting and stirring rock & roll!
