Theatr Mwldan and Cardigan Castle have announced that singer-songwriter KT Tunstall will be performing live at Cardigan Castle on 13 July.

Since exploding onto the scene in 2004 with her smash-hit debut album Eye to the Telescope, the platinum-selling artist has enjoyed success after success with countless hits, numerous awards – Ivor Novello and Brit Awards, Grammy and Mercury Prize nominations – and a number of her songs being used in TV shows and films such as The Devil Wears Prada.

Following the loss of her father and her divorce, KT relocated to Venice Beach, California. After a period of reflection, she underwent a kind of creative rebirth and her desire to make records and tour was reignited.

Now two thirds of her way through a trilogy of albums, evoking, in sequence: spirit (KIN), body (WAX) and mind (a yet to be announced album), she recently performed a series of sold-out headline shows across the UK and US and toured with The Pretenders, Simple Minds, Barenaked Ladies and Gary Barlow.

This summer, touring the enthusiastic, emphatic and downright sensual rock ‘n’ roll adventurism that is WAX across the UK, Europe and the US with an all-female band, expect to see a mesmerising live artist at the top of her game, a rock-pop troubadour and one hell of a show.

“Making this record,” said KT, “that felt really good.”

Doors open at 7pm and the music starts at 8pm.
