High & Lonesome is a new festival which only began life in 2014 and takes place in one of Leeds bedt venues; the legendary Brudenell Social Club. The festival takes over both rooms, as well as taking over the Left Bank Church just round the corner for some special shows. Expect a celebration of all things Americana.

2015's festival will see performances from Josh T. Pearson, Neil Halstead, Tom Williams and the Boat (acoustic), Lewis and Leigh, Harry Mundy & the Mules, Cottonwoolf, Simeon Walker, Olivia Naio Fitzwallace and many many more.
