The Rosellys (full band) with Cigarrettes & Cider

On Saturday 24 May, Live In The Library Presents... UK alt-country roots family band The Rosellys with Cigarettes & Cider.

Based in Herefordshire (UK), The Rosellys are a five piece band whose music can be best described as:
“Capturing the essence of country, with folk ingredients baked into a transatlantic
roots fusion” (R2 Magazine).
Influenced by artists such as Chris Stapleton, Alison Krauss, Gillian Welch, Gram Parsons & James Taylor to name a few, it is clear The Rosellys have an absolute love for alternative country music. This family band is led by life partners Dr Rebecca Rosellys (guitar, vocals, banjo) and Simon Rosellys (guitar, fiddle, vocals), along with Simon’s Dad Allan Kelly (pedal steel/accordion) and father/son Matt Kirby (bass) and George Kirby (drums). They signed to Clubhouse Records in 2015.

In June 2022, The Rosellys released their fifth studio album ‘On The Porch’. Rated 8/10,
Americana UK wrote; “expertly produced by Ron Rogers (T’Pau) this is a 14 track
collection of stirring, moving and classy fiddle and banjo-centric songs from a couple
who, 17 years into their relationship, obviously really understand each other
personally and musically – a highly impressive collection it is too”.

Cigarettes & Cider are a new young indie-folk outfit from Birmingham (Angel & Marianne).

Advance general entry £15.00 (£10.00 concessions) (Early bird £12/8).
