ONE of the UK’s most successful country acts will perform in Poole.

Twin sisters Catherine and Lizzy Ward Thomas, known as Ward Thomas, will perform a special show with stripped back versions of songs from across their career.

Catherine and Lizzy will visit Poole Lighthouse on Wednesday, February 12, as part of their winter tour.

These unique shows will take Ward Thomas back to their early days of performing and writing together, seeing the duo perform and share the stories behind the songs that have seen them make such an impact on country music.

Recording their debut album, 2014’s From Where We Stand, while still in school, the duo has since cemented themselves as pioneers in the UK Country and Americana scene.

This was followed by Cartwheels released in 2016 going to number one in the UK Album Charts, the first by a UK country act to top the charts.

In 2019, the band was presented with the Country Music Association’s Jeff Walker Global Achievement Award in recognition of their success and impact on country music in the UK.
