Katie Spencer + Watkin Sharkey

Norwich Lanes

Katie Spencer

Raised in the East Yorkshire flatlands on the fringes of Hull (UK), Katie Spencer’s landscape has always been that of open skies and widening rivers. It is this sense of space and movement that flows through her assured guitar style and songwriting. Now, as Katie steps into this new era with a third album, her focus turns to those deeper inner spaces, inviting the listener to engage with her heartfelt and intricately-crafted songs.

Watkin Sharkey

Born and raised in Norfolk (UK), Watkin Sharkey is a folk songwriter influenced by the likes of Bob Dylan, Ralph Mctell & Michael Chapman. A new kid on the block, Sharkey has dived into his first year of live performances with tours of the UK, France & Spain. Supporting Katie Spencer in Sheffield & opening for Paul Armfield on his spring 2025 UK tour are notable successes. With a debut album in the works, Watkin has a distinctive, contemporary sound while tipping his hat to the 60s/70s folk tradition.
