UK country-pop duo Ward Thomas have announced an intimate UK tour for the festive season. Taking place at the start of December the Christmas tour will take in 5 intimate venues in different corners of the country.
Hailed as one the UK’s most successful country exports, twin sisters Catherine and Lizzy Ward Thomas will be performing a special acoustic set with a range of hits from their back catalogue as well as a select number of Christmas hits, reimagined with a cosy country flair.
“We will be headed back out on a little Christmas tour in December! Very excited for this one! It’s so nice to do the intimate shows and add a few Christmas songs in too!” Catherine Thomas
The tour will follow on from the duos 10th anniversary tour of Cartwheels in September, which will see the pair perform their second studio album in its entirety with a full band, revisiting the record that made history as the first ever by a British country act to reach No.1 on the UK Albums Chart.
Released in 2016, Cartwheels was the Hampshire duo’s second album and the record that propelled them from emerging singer-songwriters to trailblazers of a new British country-pop sound.
Since Ward Thomas burst onto the scene in 2014 they have snagged numerous awards, nominations and accolades, including the Country Music Association’s Jeff Walker Global Achievement Award (2019), UK Album of the Year (BCMA Awards, 2019) and gold certification for Cartwheels.
Their harmony soaked fifth and most recent studio album Music In The Madness (2023) is still as fresh as ever and Ward Thomas remain jewels in the crown of the UK Country Music scene, selling thousands of tickets year on year with their touring across the UK.
