Ward Thomas are a rising UK country pop duo, composed of twin sisters Catherine and Lizzy.

Ward Thomas’s 2023 UK tour opens at Glasgow's Old Frutimarket in March 2023. The tour is in support of their fifth studio album Music In The Madness.

The new album is both a harmony-soaked balm for shattered souls and an uplifting reminder of what really matters. Love, family, unity and the healing power of music are recurrent themes on an album begun as war broke out in Ukraine and the world went into a post-Covid tailspin.

“In Ukraine in particular we witnessed these wonderful, moving moments of music in the madness,” says Catherine. “Soldiers singing the national anthem and getting married on the front line. The viral video of the girl in a bomb shelter singing Let It Go. In times of crisis, music matters even more. That’s what we set out to celebrate.”

An aforementioned trip to Nashville in February – the Hampshire sisters’ second home since they recorded their debut in the city while still at school – nailed the spirit of the album.

Still only 28, Catherine and Lizzy are on a roll and already working on a sixth album which they plan to release before they turn 30.

“We look up to artists like Brandi Carlile, whose career has grown organically. Of course, we love success, but the artists we admire are the ones who keep showing up and don’t sell out. We do what we do because we love music and we have something to say.”

For as long as that continues, there will be Ward Thomas.

Doors: 7pm
