Master songwriter Jim Lauderdale to play live at The Stables this week...

Following the release of acclaimed new album London Southern and a guest spot on the hugely popular Transatlantic Sessions tour in February, award winning singer and master songwriter Jim Lauderdale is back in the UK for more shows this month - including a date at The Stables on Wednesday (July 26).

Throughout his three-decade career, Lauderdale has helped pave the way for the current Americana movement, recording albums and writing songs that cross genres from country, rock, folk and bluegrass.

He has written many classic songs for iconic artists and worked with some of the finest performers in traditional and modern music, including Robert Hunter,  Elvis Costello, George Strait, Buddy Miller, Lucinda Williams, John Oates, Solomon Burke, Lee Ann Womack, Mary Chapin Carpenter and the Dixie Chicks.

As a solo artist, he has created a critically acclaimed body of work spanning nearly 30 albums of imaginative roots music, encompassing country, bluegrass, soul, R&B and rock.

Oh, and he's a double Grammy winner too.
