Holly Carter

Holly Carter is a singer-songwriter and multi-award-winning instrumentalist who has already established a reputation as one of Bristol’s leading fingerstyle guitarists and as one of the UK’s only professional female pedal steel players. Drawing inspiration from a varied musical upbringing, her musicality entwines aspects of folk, roots and Americana to create a mix that echoes everything from the likes of Gillian Welch to Chet Atkins. Harnessing an approach to music as a powerful tool for education and change, her songs weave joyously catchy melodies with thought-provoking lyrics that pay homage to a diverse collection of musical and personal heroes. Her debut full-length album, 'Leave Your Mark' is out now. ​ With support from Special Guest Susannah Clegg (a singer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist from the North West of England)
