RESCHEDULED
This show has been rescheduled from 3 April 2022 to 21 May 2023
A message from Gretchen:
“To our UK friends & fans: this is an announcement that I did not want to make – namely that our UK tour scheduled for March/April 2022 is being postponed once again due to continued uncertainty concerning Covid-19. We have struggled with this decision for weeks now; in the end the situation remains too uncertain for us to find a way forward with the tour as scheduled.
I am devastated to have to postpone; we have not performed since March 2020 and were so looking forward to this being our return to live shows after a long 2 years”.
Please note your specific seats will remain valid for the new date and you do not need to contact us at this stage.

Grammy-nominated Nashville singer-songwriter Gretchen Peters returns to the De La Warr Pavilion next June with her band and very special guest, Kim Richey.
This is the new date, rescheduled from 9 June 2021
Doors 7pm
For two decades, Gretchen Peters has been one of Nashville’s most beloved and respected artists. “If Peters never delivers another tune as achingly beautiful as ‘On A Bus To St. Cloud,’” People Magazine wrote, “she has already earned herself a spot among country’s upper echelon of contemporary composers.”
Inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame in October 2014 by singer-songwriter Rodney Crowell, who called her “both a songwriter and a poet (who) sings as beautifully as she writes,” and said her song “The Matador”, “moved me so greatly, I cried from the soles of my feet”, Peters has accumulated accolades as a songwriter for artists as diverse as Etta James, Bonnie Raitt, The Neville Brothers, Patty Loveless, George Strait, Bryan Adams and Faith Hill. Her 2015 album, ‘Blackbirds’, debuted at #1 on the UK Country chart and in the top 40 UK pop chart, and was awarded International Album of the Year and Song of the Year.
In 2015, The Telegraph named her one of the greatest 60 female singer-song-writers of all time. Her latest album, The Night You Wrote That Song: The Songs of Mickey Newbury, released in May 2020, is a loving tribute to another Hall of Fame songwriter and a profound influence on Peters’ own writing.
