We’re excited to be working with Sheffield’s Nat Johnson for the first time!

Nat-Johnson-Takk-Manchester

Accompanied by her band on flute, fiddle, harmonies, horn and lapsteel, acclaimed singer-songwriter Nat Johnson will be playing songs from her new album, Neighbour of the Year, along with songs from her former outfits, Monkey Swallows the Universe (‘Sheffield’s loveliest band’ – the Guardian) and Nat Johnson and the Figureheads (‘Like a cross-pollination of Yo La Tengo and the ‘nu-folk’ of Laura Marling’ – Subba Cultcha).

‘Witty, poignant, classy and heartfelt… an acoustic leading light’ – Our Favourite Places

‘Genuine and irresistible’ – Now Then Magazine
