Katie Spencer at The Canopy Theatre

KATIE SPENCER – Canopy Theatre, Hungate Church, Beccles Saturday 21 st November 2026 8.00 p.m.

‘A fine singer-songwriter, and an excellent guitarist’– Songlines Magazine ★★★★ 

Katie was born and raised in East Yorkshire and her songwriting, and most notably her guitar playing, stem from a time when the steel-stringed instrument was truly finding its voice. Artists like Joni Mitchell, James Taylor and perhaps most evidently Michael Chapman, flow into her sound, carrying with them the warmth and idealism of the early 70’s folk and songwriter movements.

Katie’s latest album What Love Is was released in October 2025 and is an intimate collection of ten brand-new songs produced by Matt Ingram (Laura Marling, The Staves). It reached #12 in the Official Folk Albums Chart upon release and went on to win “Album of the Year” in FATEA Magazine. Recorded in London’s Urchin Studios and featuring prominent players Giacomo Smith (clarinet), Max Clilverd (pedal steel), Tom Mason (double bass) and Matt Ingram (drums, synth).

Annie Dressner is a singer-songwriter, originally from New York City but now living in Cambridge, UK. Brimming with razor sharp wit, emotional poignancy and glorious melodies, Annie’s straightforward lyrical style, smart wordplay and lilting vocals offer listeners a front row seat to her captivating stories.

Annie has released four studio albums and her music has been played extensively across UK national radio, including recording a live session for Gideon Coe on BBC 6 Music. Last year's single “For The Thrill Of It” features Kathryn Williams and is a scathing commentary about sexual harassment within the music industry.
