AN artist described as “the Stevie Nicks of folk” is to headline a show in Stourbridge next weekend, with a few tickets still available.

Alex Hart, who has been linked to the US music icon by BBC Radio 2’s Mark Radcliffe, will be performing at The Talbot Hotel on Saturday May 25 as part of the One Heart, One Way music event in the town.

The singer-songwriter, from Devon, who has been taking the world of folk music by storm, will be supported on the night by local folk musicians Gary O’Dea and Catch The Rain.

The gig starts at 7.15pm and tickets cost £13 in advance from boroughhalls.co.uk, or £14 on the door.

It is one of a host of events taking place at venues across the town throughout the day and night on May 25.

An outdoor stage under the clock on Stourbridge High Street will showcase live bands and musicians for free from 11am to 5pm.

Events will also run at Claptrap The Venue, The Mitre and The Duke William, while the headline show will see town favourites Ned’s Atomic Dustbin topping the bill at Stourbridge Town Hall.

Kelly Martin, venue manager for Stourbridge Town Hall, said: “One Heart One Way will be a collaboration with venues and businesses in the town to celebrate the immense influence of music in the town, past and present.

“We hope it will inspire a fresh wave of engagement in music lovers and players.”
