Curated by renowned English eccentric Robyn Hitchcock, The Floating Palace is an intimate evening of free-wheeling musical collaboration.


Listen to a special live session with Robyn Hitchcock in our January podcast

It's a simple concept: musicians admire each other, are a little envious of each other, and, given the chance, like to play with each other. But normally they only get the chance to do this in the studio, or after hours. For the first time before a paying audience, we present a carousel of exceptional 'roots' artists; all lit within by their passion for music, accompanying each other on songs they know and songs they've only just met.

KT Tunstall - Black Horse & The Cherry Tree (live)


Unfortunately Abigail Washburn will no longer be performing as a part of this concert. We are delighted to announce that Krystle Warren has been added to the bill instead.

The confirmed line up is: Robyn Hitchcock, KT Tunstall, Eliza & Martin Carthy, Krystle Warren and Howe Gelb.
