A warm welcome back to The Fire Station for the wonderful Kate Rusby with her 'Springshine’ Tour 2026
As spring awakens, Kate Rusby returns with Springshine — a radiant new tour celebrating renewal, song, and connection.
Joined by her supremely talented Singy Songy Session Band, Kate brings an intimate, stripped-back sound that highlights her unmistakable, angelic voice.
Audiences can expect a heartfelt blend of old favourites and fresh songs, performed with the warmth, wit, and northern charm that have made her one of Britain’s most cherished artists.
From gentle moments to joyous bursts of melody, Springshine promises an evening of light, laughter, and music to lift the heart.
Kate Rusby
Forever proud to call herself a folk singer, Kate Rusby’s vocals never fail to connect the heart of a song to that of her audience. Named as one of the Top Ten Folk Voices of the Century, a Mercury Prize Winner, 6-times BBC Radio 2 Folk Award Winner and a warm, Yorkshire sense of humour to boot, Rusby has achieved an unprecedented cross-over appeal. Despite stepping into a more contemporary production on her last few albums, she has stayed true to her roots. Her cover of Manic Monday (Hand Me Down 2020) featured on the BBC Radio 2 playlist. The guests on 2022 album 30 : Happy Returns is testament to Rusby’s wide appeal and include the likes of Ladysmith Black Mambazo, KT Tunstall, and Beth Nielson Chapman. Celebrating over 30 years of touring and 22 albums including her latest beautifully stunning Christmas album, Light Years, released in December 2023, Kate and her band of merry and very talented men will be visiting us in her 50th birthday year with songs old and new.
