I stumbled upon this totally by accident, and now I'm hooked! This is the third time I've watched it. What an absolute class act Grace Petrie is. Great songs, great band, engaging patter. Consummate professional. I'm now a fan!
Yes, there are so many good folk festivals in the UK at different times of the year. The quality of performances never disappoints.The smaller ones are friendly and the performers are very accessible. Several years ago when Grace played Hartlepool folk festival, I found her outside the hall after her set talking with the interested. When things open up again, this website will be useful to follow. ukfolkfestivals.co.uk/england.php
This is a great recording Before Lockdown I discovered Grace Petrie and had seen her four times in a year. I had 4 tickets to see her last May...how I am missing the live performance. She is fabulous and her audiences are lovely. When I first went to see her, I thought I might (as a 68 year old straight man) feel out of place, but right form the start of the gig I felt included. She is magic.

I should have gone, but I never knew ... I really like Grace Petrie in this concent and great to see local heroine Jasmine Kennedy on bass & backing vocals!
I watched this performance from my holiday home because I hate loud crowds and noises and I loved every second of it, so now I've come back to watch it again.
Discovered this brilliant concert this week. Had heard you on The Guilty Feminist podcast. Love your lyrics, your music, your comments and rapport with the audience! YOU ROCK, GRACE PETRIE!
I was there, too, Callum, but I caught this set. I spent parts of it in tears. Brilliant. And hearing the tent bellowing out the sweary bits of 'Black Tie' was a delight!
@@stephjones9109 Hopefully I've partly made up for my absence by giving a serious boost to the Views tally! Roll on next festival, and to when I will see her postponed show in Edinburgh. All is not lost... ;)
@@camaldo3490 No worries! I will be at Shrewsbury next year, and you will find me with my mandolin in aa many sessions as I can manage, in between the paid acts. I shall raise a glass in the Berwick Bar to those with taste in music!
I assumed A Young Woman's Tale was written by Grace. "Learned from Roy Bailey" meaning learned from him how to write such a song? She seems to have songwriting down okay on her own...
I’m pretty sure it’s Grace’s lyrics as a contemporary reworking of Ian Campbell’s ‘An Old Man’s Tale’, which is a great bit of storytelling about the poor being sent off to war after war - def worth a look!
I'm delighted at the generosity of Shrewsbury folk festival in making this available. Thanks!

Much as I like Grace Petrie's studio recordings, I'm finding this live performance even better.
It's because you get the stand up comedy too 😁
I relate to whoever was telling "we do" when she sang "I'm just trying to make you love me"
*yelling
we do!
I cannot tell how many times I have watched this performance from the start straight to the end already.
Just this week I discovered Grace and her band and I am overwhelmed by the wonderful passion of her words and music. Fantastic.
Flippin awesome socialist feminist lesbian protest singer, she gives me goosebumps with her truth and melts my heart with her feelings. Beautiful.
I relate so much to the ppl in the audience who you can hear singing along with EVERY WORD ☺️
She makes me wanna attend a festival proper and all to listen to her

What a great song! Everyone should see Grace live, she's amazing.

Super. We need more like her. Peter Turner.
This is exceptional. I don't think it gets any better than this.

YOU ROCK, GRACE PETRIE!
Awesome. Absolutely .... Awesome. Gracie is a legend.
Fan. Tas. Tic.
I'm fairly new to Grace, but from my first listen to Black Tie I loved her stuff. Thanks Shrewsbury Folk Festival for this :)
Thanks for posting, just saw her in Halifax. Outstanding show! Thank you Grace
One of my highlights from 2019. What a talent.
Love this artist
Truly Awesome Grace - Stay true to yourself and keep singing, please.
well done Shrewsbury folk - and well done Grace Petrie.
Happy New Year Grace, Caitlín and all the gang, and the wee dog!
Brilliant
That was just fantastic. Thank you.
Fantastic thankyou.
I'll be at her gig on the 13th November 2021, any (preferably young) Petrie fans wanna link?
I'm going to see her in Nottingham in March if you'll be there?
I was there but wasn't aware of her and missed her set.. :( I shall correct that wrong next year! Thaknls for uploading the set :)

She seems like a really nice fella.
A good bloke
Very intelligent.. 🙄
To much talking, too political..NOT enough music !
Des Marshall ok des
At the festival there was plenty of music to follow. Excellent tunes and excellent message in my humble opinion.
She might not be your cuppa tea, she is a bloody great glass of whiskey for a lot of us ;-)
Ha, you misunderstood, mate. Most of us turn up for the commentary almost as much as the music.
@@Pouquiloury Great comeback!
