🔥ARTIST ANNOUNCEMENT: ELIZA CARTHY & THE RESTITUTION 🔥

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Eliza Carthy & The Restitution will be joining us at Musicport Festival 2026! 🎶🔥

A powerhouse of English folk, Eliza has been pushing boundaries, breaking rules and bringing her unique mix of grit, beauty, humour, heartbreak, poetry and passion to audiences for over three decades!

Born into the legendary Waterson/Carthy musical dynasty, Eliza has carved out a remarkable career entirely on her own terms becoming one of the most celebrated and distinctive voices in English folk and traditional music!

And if we’re talking FIRE… Eliza is exactly where she belongs 🔥

Expect a performance packed with energy, attitude, storytelling, emotion and that unmistakable Eliza Carthy spirit. Whether she’s making you laugh, making you think or setting the stage alight, this is one Musicport performance you really won’t want to miss.

✨ A little extra fire… ✨

Eliza is also bringing her brand-new album Frenemies, created with chief co-writer and co-producer Ben Seal and her virtuoso long-term band.

The 15-track album explores motherhood, betrayal, forgiveness, fury at the state of the world, love, identity and plenty of Gen X humour with over an hour of brand-new music!
