About this concert
Ida Wenøe (Denmark / Songcrafter Music (DK) & Integrity Records (UK)) and Samantha Whates (UK / Rough Trade Records & Wonderfulsound) are back on the road in 2024, Following a Danish tour in February the pair are continuing where they left off touring the UK in March 2022.
2021 Danish Music Awards winner Ida Wenøe has an obvious appreciation of Americana but her own brand of Nordic-noir is laced with English folk undertones.
Wenøe released her third solo album "Undersea" in October 2023 and presents the songs from the new album live in England in a series of double headliner shows with Scottish born artist Samantha Whates, who is also a part of Ida's new band "The Wondrous Sea”.
Scottish singer-songwriter Samantha Whates is a hugely respected figure on the folk & roots scene and has enjoyed both critical acclaim and extensive radio play on the likes of BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio 2, BBC Scotland & KCRW, both for her solo releases and as part of PicaPica (Rough Trade Records).
Whates has just released her new EP Early Works, a self produced and recorded prequel to the music she subsequently made!
Wenøe & Whates forged a musical bond some years ago whilst attending a Chris Difford songwriting retreat and were reunited 2 years later whilst attending Folk Alliance in Kansas City where they had both been selected as official showcasing artists.
Though touring as separate co-headliners, the pair regularly collaborated and joined each other on stage to perform new arrangements for each other's favourite songs and this in ‘Turn’ turned into a now fully collaborative set and releasing an EP together in 2022.

Ida Wenøe Biography
Danish Music Award winning folk artist Ida Wenøe has earned a reputation as an outstanding live performer with her cut-through crystalline voice and delicate guitar style.
Since the release of her debut album “Time of Ghosts” in 2015 she has played hundreds of shows all over Europe and North America, and enjoyed significant national radio support in her homeland, along with BBC 6 Music and BBC Radio 4 (UK) and KEXP (Seattle) and WXNA (Nashville) in the USA .
Ida Wenøe is known for her introspective storytelling, often using nature as her tapestry. With a voice that's both ethereal and earthy, the Copenhagen-based singer-songwriter draws inspiration from the folk traditions of the 1960s and ‘70s, with her own contemporary take. Her music is characterised by subtle yet intricate guitar work, soaring vocal harmonies, and a lyrical depth that's both personal and universal.
Originating from a small village in the countryside of Jutland, Denmark, Ida started writing songs as a pre-teen, finding comfort in the intimacy between her voice and the guitar, and using her curiosity for telling stories as her catalyst. She taught herself how to play the guitar and has never had a lesson in her life, making her guitar style quite unique. “I took piano lessons from a very young age, and I think this was my quiet rebellion against being schooled in the “right” way of how to play music.” Ida says.
Now with 3 acclaimed studio albums behind her, Wenøe has developed her own take on chamber folk, by blending traditional Danish folk music influenced by the legendary songbook “Højskolesangbogen” and composers like Sebastian and Carl Nielsen with inspiration from international artists like Nick Drake, Joni Mitchell, Bill Callahan, Bedouine, Leonard Cohen, Vashti Bunyan and Beth Gibbons.
In more recent years Ida has embraced her love of collaborations, namely with artists; Samantha Whates from Scotland, Gareth Bonello from Wales and Matt the Electrician from USA, both writing and performing together, enjoying a strong musical and personal kinship in the blending of their musical styles, all rooted in folk music.
Following 2019’s well-received “The Things We Don’t Know Yet”, Ida’s latest album "Undersea" came out in 2023 to great international reviews, airplay on BBC Radio with a lot of smaller radio stations supporting it too. It was followed up by concerts in Sweden and Denmark with a UK tour scheduled for autumn 2024.
Written and recorded in two weary old summer houses on the west coast of Jutland, the new songs see Ida return to the hushed, simple intimacy of her acclaimed debut LP "Time of Ghosts”, with nature and the range of human emotion lyrically center stage.
