■ Stamford is set to twang with Ameripolitan torchbearers Jeremy Pinnell, a Kentucky singer-songwriter, and Ags Connolly.

They might be separated by 2000 miles of water, cultural differences, lifestyle choices and a common language, but Jeremy and his Oxford-based counterpart Ags might just have been separated at birth.

Both plough a furrow through American roots music and classic country that is both deep, straight, and seemingly symbiotic. Both possess voices to stop traffic, but at the same time make the listener aware that this is music for grown-ups. Catch them at La Flambeau at Mama Liz’s Voodoo Lounge in Stamford on October 19.

Organiser, Kelly Gregory, said, “I’m thrilled that these two great artists are coming to Stamford. They epitomise what Ameripolitan stands for, and the type of live music La Flambeau is commited to bring regularly to the area.”
