‘A perfectly concentrated blast of Americana in a location beyond ideal’ – Spiral Earth
The UK’s first and finest Americana festival is pleased to announce its lineup for 2026. The festival will take place from Friday 3rd July to Sunday 5th, showcasing international artists from both sides of the Atlantic and beyond. The barns and fields of Easton Farm Park in rural Suffolk will once more be transformed into a festival site offering five stages indoors and out, presenting an array of music, dance and masterclasses that have been attracting festival-goers since 2008.
For the “nineteenth nervous breakdown” Maverick are pleased to announce a spectacular international lineup featuring the cream of American roots music, with Californian road dogs ROSE’S PAWN SHOP, Southern Gothic storyteller BEN DE LA COUR, everyone’s favourite fiddler CHRIS MURPHY, Canadian award-winning folk/roots master LEEROY STAGGER, Alt-Country originators WACO BROTHERS
(Jon Langford), Oregon’s cowpunk jug band SASSPARILLA, stateside space folk rockers ELECTRIC BLUE YONDER, Texan barnstormers VANDOLIERS, the queen of Oklahoma CARTER SAMPSON, Australia’s sun-soaked rock and rollers BIG WHEELS and in their only UK festival appearance, cult favourites THE JACKMORMONS (Jerry Joseph), with more names to follow.
Once again, our friends in Lafayette, Louisiana have partnered with us to bring the spicy flavours, fancy footwork and fabulous sounds of the Bayou to the farm, with music from Paul McCartney favourites THE CAJUN ROOSTERS, and accordion maestro LIL JIM with his new band CAJUN ROYALE. This year Maverick will also be partnering with Music For All, a charity dedicated to changing lives across the UK by improving access to music making.
Maverick has been at the forefront of establishing the Americana scene in the UK since before the genre was christened, co-founding the Americana Music Association UK and hosting established artists like Mary Gauthier, Justin Townes Earle, Sierra Hull and Billy Bragg whilst championing many like Yola, Larkin Poe, Brown Horse and Gwenifer Raymond early in their careers.
