About
Other Entertainment**DOUBLE HEADLINE SHOW** ELAINE PALMER Hailing from an isolated village up on the North Yorkshire Moors, Elaine has spent much of her life travelling back and forth to family in Phoenix, Arizona. Growing up in an old Watermill, she immersed herself in music, writing songs influenced by her surroundings both in the UK and USA. Elaine finely honed her distinctive voice and built a reputation as much for her emotive, mesmerizing stage presence as for her fusion of British folk and American country styles. Touring extensively, sharing stages with the likes of Patty Griffin, Lilly Hiatt and Seasick Steve, her two most recent releases Half Moon Rising and Some Seek Silver, Some Seek Gold have seen her working with musician and producer Mike Butler (Phoebe Bridgers, Norah Jones, The White Buffalo) at his Half Moon Lodge studio high in the San Diego hills. ‘Palmer’s powerful expressive voice stands comparison with Emmylou’ - RnR Magazine ‘Carefully constructed, strong on melody, her best work yet’***** - AmericanaUK ‘With a beautifully conversational voice, an unerring sense of melody and a bittersweet and wistful repertoire, Elaine Palmer is undoubtedly a talent’ **** - MOJO SATELLITE INN Back in 2002, Satellite Inn were the italian touring band for Robert Fisher (Willard Grant Conspiracy). That persuaded him to handle the production of what it should have been Satellite Inn’s second album. What did happen is that MoodFood Records went out of business and the band on permanent hiatus, as well as the songs included in that demo. After the self- release of their 2024 eponymous album, Satellite Inn, almost a decade since the death of Robert Fisher that lost songs reappeared in a box of Satellite Inn’s unused master tapes. The material was so inspiring for the band that they decided to pay a tribute to their old master. Those early songs sounded so fresh that they became the backbone of their new record, due out on February 2026. For the occasion, Satellite Inn will team up again with their old friends at the historic El Cortez label in Portland, Oregon, once run by Richmond Fontaine and now the platform distributing aural gems from the acclaimed band The Delines.
