Grace Petrie

For a decade and a half, Grace Petrie has been one of the UK’s most urgent and passionate songwriters.

Coming of age amidst the coalition government, her politically charged folk music quickly gained national attention and propelled her to the main stages of folk festivals from Cambridge to Vancouver to the Blue Mountains of Australia. Characterised by razor-sharp lyricism and the unmistakeable passion of her stage presence, her live shows have become synonymous for fans with a unique atmosphere of hope and solidarity, with LGBTQ anthem Black Tie racking up 1.5 million streams and providing a soundtrack of expression for young queer folks all over the world

An irrepressible live performer, Grace has toured relentlessly to build loyal audiences in the UK, Australia, New Zealand and Canada, as well as providing tour support for Billy Bragg, Frank Turner and Emmy-winner Hannah Gadsby.

In 2026 she is exploring the stripped back nature of folk songwriting once again, performing a show of two halves that encompasses both an intimate solo set, and a career-retrospective full band performance featuring songs from across her sixteen-year catalogue.
