Emily Barker & Support

Emily Barker is an award-winning singer-songwriter from Western Australia. Her song “Nostalgia” was the theme for the acclaimed BBC crime drama “Wallander” starring Kenneth Branagh. Her songwriting has been acclaimed by The Guardian - “Emily Barker has a gift for great melodies”. She has toured extensively, including with Frank Turner and Mary Chapin Carpenter, and was the 2018 UK Americana Artist of the Year. Barker's first collection of poetry Where The Black Swans Swim was published this year through UK publisher Broken Sleep Books.

When she was recording her latest album Fragile as Humans at The Wool Hall, producer Luke Potashnick suggested they do a couple of covers - 'Tonight, Tonight’ felt like an obvious choice for Barker and the band set about creating a version that took the song in a rolling, acoustic Beck "Sea Change"-esque direction.
