Robert Plant’s Saving Grace to headline Black Deer Festival

From Loudersound.

Saving Grace featuring Robert Plant and Suzy Dian will headline this year’s Black Deer Festival.

Other bands announced today for festival, which takes place June 19-21 at Eridge Park near Tunbridge Wells in Kent, include Shooter JenningsImelda May and Lukas Nelson & Promise Of The Real. They’ll join a line-up that already features Wilco, The Waterboys, The Dead South, Courtney Marie Andrews and The Felice Brothers.

“This looks like a great bill,” says Plant. “I’ve worked alongside most of these people in recent times, over here or over there. There’s power and beauty. Looking forward to it!”

Saving Grace made their debut in January 2019, when they played a surprise show at the Sparc Theatre in Bishop’s Castle. They followed this with two shows supporting Fairport Convention, playing covers of songs by Patti Griffin, Blind Willie Johnson, The Everley Brothers and Donovan.

The band’s last show was at Birmingham Town Hall in December, where they covered material by artists including Moby Grape, Levon Helm, Doc Watson and Low.

Robert Plant and Suzy Dian are joined in the Saving Grace lineup Tony Kelsey on guitar and mandolin, Matt Worley on banjo and guitar and percussionist Oli Jefferson.
