# Event Details - **Event Name**: Bob Sumner live at The Phyllis Maud - **Event Start and End Date**: Mon, 01 Jun, 2026 at 03:00 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: We are very proud to announce that Canadian country-folk artist Bob Sumner will be performing at The Phyllis Maud as part of his UK tour in June. Singer-songwriter Bob Sumner cites the musically progressive sensibilities of his heroes when talking about the spirit of his new album, Some Place to Rest Easy, out now via Fluff & Gravy (worldwide) and North Country Collective(Canada). “They were always creating something new, something different,” he says of idols like George Jones, Willie Nelson, andWaylon Jennings. With that ideology in mind, Sumner set about creating an album that takes as much inspiration from the audio production of Randy Travis as it does the lyrical soul of Big Thief’s Adrianne Lenker—a melding of eras, sounds, concepts, and stylings that’s informed by the past, but never bound by it. With Some Place to Rest Easy, Sumner picks up the tempo compared to his previous releases, balancing the stirring lyrical depth fans have come to expect with a more buoyant, lively feel. “It felt appropriate to give the music itself some joy,” says the man who’s made a career out of tapping into difficult-to-touch-on, real-life stuff in a relatable, palatable manner.In the end, that’s what Sumner’s music has always been about—more than a single sound, influence, instrumental, or clever line. “I always want people to feel something,” Sumner explains. “If I heard that this album helped somebody that was feeling down, even just by feeling some other emotion for a little while, that's the number one thing for me.” "A blend of past, present, and future sounds." - American Songwriter. “More than a single sound, influence, instrumental, or theme, the through line in Sumner’s music has always been vulnerability.” - Glide Magazine. “Genuine and weighty songwriting”-Americana Highways. “High class, country leaning Americana.” -Americana UK. “It takes a deft hand to put out a good, sad record...Bob Sumner nails it on Someplace To Rest Easy.” - Twangville Support TBA.
