We are excited to welcome Craig Gould & The Noble Thieves to the Freshly Squeezed Stage!
With his ‘Beautiful music & masterful musicianship’ (Americana UK) and ‘Intimate, mellifluous country sounds’ (RnR Magazine), Craig Gould’s celebrated talent has received comparisons with songwriting royalty such as Cat Stevens, Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan & Fleetwood Mac.
Craig’s debut album ‘Songs from the Campfire’ released to critical acclaim achieving top 20 positioning in the UK’s Official Americana (#19), Folk (#16) and Indie Breakers (#20) album charts; Further reinforcing his growing reputation as one of the hottest new artists on the Independent music scene. The record, listed amongst the ‘Best Albums of 2023’ by respected music publications At The Barrier, Music News Monthly & BluesBlues, documents Gould’s journey through severe mental illness; A path that saw him donate the records profits in partnership with the mental health charity CALM.
Invited by the AMA-UK to perform during London’s prestigious Americana Music Week, endorsed by Tanglewood Guitars & award nominated by the BCMA; Momentum from Gould’s breakthrough year shows no signs of slowing anytime soon. Make sure to catch the band as they open the Freshly Squeezed Stage, Sunday afternoon!
