Jackie-O Motherf*cker “patiently unravel their source material’s tangled threads, respooling them into wondrously evocative yet deeply personalised new devotionals.” ~ Pitchfork.

Jackie-O Motherf*cker + special guests also play The Rose Hill on Thursday 28th August.

Jackie-O Motherf*cker’s music draws from a variety of subgenres including various folk musics of the world (American folk and blues, Traditional English folk ballads, etc.), drone, free jazz, psychedelia, and noise rock, and is heavily improvisational in its nature.

✨

We’re also thrilled to present the 20th Anniversary Tour: Martha Wainwright – to celebrate the anniversary of her seminal debut studio album – atThe Booking Hall, Dover on Friday 29th August.

“20 years, with 6 other albums under my belt, 2 kids and a career that is chugging along, I can safely say my first record paved my way forward. This tour features great musicians, where I’ll play the record in its entirety as well as a few new songs.”

Martha Wainwright is a Canadian singer-songwriter and musician. She has released seven critically-acclaimed studio albums. Wainwright is the daughter of musicians Kate McGarrigle and Loudon Wainwright III and the younger sister of singer–composer Rufus Wainwright. Her live performances have received critical praise, with The Telegraph writing that her concerts “leave in no doubt that she is a singular star.”
