Country at the Castle

*From the organisers (correct at the time of publishing), please see the organiser’s website for the latest details.

Get ready for a boot-stompin’, sing-along kind of night! Country at the Castle is a brand-new music event which brings together the most iconic and inspiring country music from across the decades.

Performed by renowned country music talent, Rory O’Neill, with live band led by Sarah Jory the world’s #1 female pedal steel guitar player, Country at the Castle will showcase anthemic country hits by seminal artists.

Rory and his brilliant band celebrate the very heart of country music – authentic sound, powerful storytelling, and a sense of community. As a Northamptonshire based country music artist, whose work is rooted in the storytelling traditions and musical lineage of country music, Rory’s repertoire has been shaped by both British live performance culture and the heritage of Nashville songwriting. Rory is part of a growing generation of artists helping to establish a confident, authentic country music voice in the UK.

We all know that no country shindig is complete without a thigh-slapping line dance opportunity!

IntroducingTina Argyle! Tina is one of the industry’s most popular choreographers, instructors, and DJs!

In an exciting plot twist, Tina has taken a song from Rory’s Nashville EP and has choreographed brand new dance for it! With 5 Crystal Boot Awards to her name, Tina promises a line dancing masterclass before Rory takes to the stage. So, it’s boots and stetsons at the ready – you can dance along when Rory performs the track live!

Our friends at the Voco Rockingham Forest Hotel, Corby, just a stone’s throw from the Castle, have offered an exclusive rate for the event!
