Flippin awesome socialist feminist lesbian protest singer, she gives me goosebumps with her truth and melts my heart with her feelings. Beautiful.

Ah dammit. Now I’m sitting here sobbing.
I was just washing dishes and Black Tie came on, probably the third version I’ve heard today. When you got to the line don’t worry darling it will be all right…a story popped into my mind. A name. Nex Benedict.
I’m so sorry, kid. Someone didn’t get the message.

Anyway thank you Grace for keeping up the good fight. I hope you reach California sometime soon.

I stumbled upon this totally by accident, and now I'm hooked! This is the third time I've watched it. What an absolute class act Grace Petrie is. Great songs, great band, engaging patter. Consummate professional. I'm now a fan!

Just this week I discovered Grace and her band and I am overwhelmed by the wonderful passion of her words and music. Fantastic.

I cannot tell how many times I have watched this performance from the start straight to the end already.

I should have gone, but I never knew ... I really like Grace Petrie in this concent and great to see local heroine Jasmine Kennedy on bass & backing vocals!

[hazelchild]

I'm delighted at the generosity of Shrewsbury folk festival in making this available. Thanks!

[JohnCraig]

What a great song! Everyone should see Grace live, she's amazing.

Much as I like Grace Petrie's studio recordings, I'm finding this live performance even better.

[robbencic]

Thanks for posting, just saw her in Halifax. Outstanding show! Thank you Grace

[hickoryheather]

I relate so much to the ppl in the audience who you can hear singing along with EVERY WORD ☺️

[hereandqueer]

I watched this performance from my holiday home because I hate loud crowds and noises and I loved every second of it, so now I've come back to watch it again.

[heidifreedom]

She makes me wanna attend a festival proper and all to listen to her <3

This is a great recording Before Lockdown I discovered Grace Petrie and had seen her four times in a year. I had 4 tickets to see her last May...how I am missing the live performance. She is fabulous and her audiences are lovely. When I first went to see her, I thought I might (as a 68 year old straight man) feel out of place, but right form the start of the gig I felt included. She is magic.

[robinpedersen]

I relate to whoever was telling "we do" when she sang "I'm just trying to make you love me"

[ApoplecticDialectics]

This is exceptional. I don't think it gets any better than this.
