She will be joined by multi-instrumentalist Julian Littman of Steeleye Span as they make their first ever visit to Matlock Bath.

Their show at The Fishpond promises a night of eclectic, contemporary folk as the pair swap guitars, piano, mandolin, harmonium, and ukulele plus a fresh take on her iconic hit Pilot of the Airwaves.

A multi-award-winning artist, Charlie will also be playing songs from her new album, Milk Roulette, which has already collected four-star reviews from Mojo, The Guardian and featured in The Telegraph Best Folk Albums of 2014.

Her songs have won two Ascap awards, an Ivor Novello nomination, both the Overall Grand and the Folk Prize from the International Acoustic Music Awards and in 2012 Best Album Lyrics from the Indy Acoustic Project for her album Cheapskate Lullabyes.

Her own records clearly favour her folk-country roots, yet Charlie is one of a handful of UK writers to have success across many genres, defined by the range of artists to have covered her songs, including Tina Turner, George Harrison, Lisa Stansfield, Paul Carrack, Ricky Ross, Celine Dion and Jimmy Nail, notching up along the way a UK No 1, US No 4, No 11 for her own Pilot of the Airwaves and hits in Italy, Germany, France and Israel.
