Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast return to the UK for the third time, bringing their unmistakable roots rock & roll sound from the mountains of North Carolina back across the Atlantic to celebrate the release of their most personal album yet, Heirloom. The band has earned a devoted international following for their electrifying live shows, razor-sharp songwriting, and the magnetic force of Caitlin Krisko’s powerhouse voice—praised by Rolling Stone as “arguably one of the best kept vocal secrets of the Southeast”.
Their new single “Heart of Gold” is already earning national airplay on Planet Rock, and it’s not hard to hear why. With lyrics that dig deep and a performance that hits even deeper, it’s a powerful glimpse into the emotional terrain of Heirloom. As Blues Matters put it: “With Heirloom on the horizon, ‘Heart Of Gold’ marks the beginning of what promises to be a defining era for Caitlin Krisko & The Broadcast.”
Written in the wake of profound loss from the unexpected passing of Krisko’s mother and guitarist Aaron Austin’s stepfather in 2023, Heirloom explores what we inherit, and what we leave behind. It’s a record about lineage, letting go, and choosing what truly matters. Each track was shaped not just by grief, but by years of resilience, miles on the road, and a deep commitment to creating something real together.
Their last run through the UK left audiences stunned, with Bristol 24/7 declaring it “a night that left no one disappointed,” and calling Krisko’s voice “one of the best in the business—soulful yet raw with that raspy ragged edge… mesmerising.” Now, with Heirloom set to release and momentum swelling on both sides of the Atlantic, the band returns with sharpened focus and undeniable urgency.
Whether you’ve been following since day one or are just hearing their name for the first time, don’t miss your chance to be in the room on their upcoming album release tour.
