CONCERT: Sarah McQuaid

12 Sep 2025

19:30 - 21:00

Ilkley Manor House

Sarah McQuaid brings her immersive, genre-spanning music to Ilkley Manor House on 12 September.

Sarah McQuaid's lush, chocolatey voice combines with her engaging personality, "subtle mastery onstage" (Huffington Post) and "brilliant musicianship" (fRoots) on acoustic and electric guitars, piano and (occasionally) drum to create a truly immersive experience.

Born in Spain, raised in Chicago, holding dual Irish and American citizenship, and now settled in rural England, she brings the eclecticism of her background to her "captivating, unorthodox songwriting" (PopMatters). All this is abundantly demonstrated by her new live album and video series The St Buryan Sessions—but needs to be savoured in person to be fully appreciated.

"One of the most instantly recognisable voices in current music." ~ Trust The Doc
