Three top singer-songwriters bringing their Big Bang Love! tour to Sussex
Three acclaimed UK singer-songwriters – Hollie Rogers, Daisy Chute and Ed Blunt – are set to return to West Sussex in January after their sell-out, standing ovation show a year ago, featuring their genre-blurring, captivating songs and multi-instrumental talents.
These accomplished songwriters - two with strong Sussex links and one a Grammy award winner - have individually worked with the likes of Radiohead, Beth Nielsen-Chapman, Judie Tzuke, and more, and are no strangers to high-profile festivals like Glastonbury.
Fans of Joni Mitchell, Paul Simon, Joan Armatrading, Debbie Harry, Randy Newman and the like won’t want to miss this!
In this unique show, at Graffham's Empire Hall, in Graffham, between Midhurst and Petworth, on January 11, 2025, they will share the stage for the duration, swapping instruments as they swap songs and stories in the round as part of their Big Bang Love! UK tour.
The setlist will comprise a mix of their individual solo material played as a trio, a few carefully chosen covers, and songs they have penned together as a writing partnership.
Expect a blend of storytelling, humour, and outstanding musicianship from these three friends and collaborators – plus new songs.
Grammy-award winning Daisy Chute's voice set Elbow's Guy Garvey raving, describing her “gorgeous vocals”.
Hollie Rogers, from mid-Sussex, is a critically-acclaimed songwriter and guitarist with a voice termed by the legendary Suzanne Vega as “magnificent and powerful".
Ed Blunt, whose family home is near Petworth, is winning a growing fan base for his exquisite piano stylings, guitar picking and vocals. His mentor Chris Difford, of Squeeze, calls him a “quiet genius”.
