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 unmistakable passion of her stage presence, her live shows have become synonymous for fans with a unique atmosphere of hope and solidarity, while the anthem Black Tie has racked up 1.5 million streams and provided the soundtrack of expression for young people all over the world.
