Ags Connolly is no stranger having played in East Grinstead before; he last played in The Bookshop in 2019. Ags has recently completed a UK, Ireland and Mainland Europe tour supporting Charley Crockett and also to promote the release of his fourth superb album ?Siempre.?

Ags is a traditional country singer-songwriter, who has built a reputation as an inspired songwriter. He is a constant presence on the touring circuit and has headlined shows both solo and with his band across the UK, Europe and the US. His influences come from the likes of David Allan Coe, Johnny Paycheck and Dale Watson. However, he also takes influences from the likes of Guy Clark, Loudon Wainwright III and Chris Knight.

AmericanaUK said "Connolly?s recent album ?Siempre? (?Always? in Spanish), an outstanding celebration of Texas-style music that earned him an 8/10 review."

His previous album ?Wrong Again? was named UK Country Album Of The Year at the 2020 UK Country Music Awards. Bob Harris on BBC Radio 2 described ?Wrong Again? as ?Modern day traditionalism of the very, very best kind.?

His second album, ?Nothin? Unexpected?, was released in February 2017. Its release led Country Music People magazine to declare him ?the best singer-songwriter in the country field that this country has ever turned out? and John Godfrey from The Troubador Show to label it ?the best country album to come out of the UK from the best ever UK country artist?.
