Nashville-based, singer-songwriter, Margo Price is set to wow audiences as she announces her upcoming UK and Ireland tour starting in January 2024. Speaking of the shows, she says “I’m beyond excited to travel across the pond to both the UK and Ireland next year with my entire band,” she continues “The Pricetags and I have built a unique live experience that brings listeners both thoughtful songwriting and a psychedelic country rock show. It’s often imitated but never duplicated. No money back if you get your face melted.”
The artist grew up in Illinois and states that a lot of the influences for the music she writes, which she labels as country, came from her midwestern-based childhood growing up on her “daddy and grandaddy’s farm.” She says “I spent my time in the woods, fields and rivers of Illinois. I grew up around cattle, horses, tractors, and radios that played old country, gospel, and classic rock and roll. I relate a lot to Loretta Lynn, even though I’m not from the South. She grew up in a rural area as well. She also had babies before she got her start. I may not be from the south, but I am country.”
The ‘Change of Heart’ singer earned nominations for Artist of The Year, Album of The Year and Song of The Year at the Americana Honors and Awards and tied for the most nominations of any single artist in 2023.
Price held an enthralling performance at Lafayette back in August 2023. The Kings Cross, London venue opened and closed in 2020 due to the pandemic before reopening for good in 2021. It has a capacity of 600 and even though just two years old, has hosted big names such as The Pretenders, Loyle Carner and Charli XCX.
