Back by popular demand, we are delighted that Annie Dressner is returning to Village Concerts in March 2026!

Songwriting stalwart Annie Dressner has been releasing music since her 2011 debut album Strangers Who Knew Each Other’s Names and, following her move to Cambridge, has become a regular name on the UK touring and festival circuit.

Born and bred in the heart of NYC, Annie picked up her family’s guitar for the very first time on the night of her high school graduation, and discovered a hidden passion that would change her life.

Inspired by icons like Simon &amp; Garfunkel, Carly Simon, and Ben Kweller, she began crafting her own melodies, often humming her thoughts like a secret soundtrack to city life.

Annie's artistic odyssey led her to countless open mic nights in the bustling streets of New York, which became her training ground, cultivating not only her craft but also a vibrant community of fellow songwriters and musicians. She eventually played her debut solo show at legendary NYC venue The Bitter End in 2008, and thereafter began collaborating with the likes of David Ford (formerly of Easyworld), Polly Paulusma, and Matthew Caws (Nada Surf).

Her music over the years has been played on BBC Radio 2 and BBC 6Music, and has seen press support from titles such as American Songwriter, Paste Magazine, Folk Radio UK and AmericanaUK, while gaining a nomination for Female Artist of the Year from FATEA.

She has graced the stages of multiple UK festivals, including the Green Man Festival, Cambridge Folk Festival, Black Deer Festival, Secret Garden Party and Manchester Folk Festival. With hundreds of gigs under her belt, sharing stages with the likes of Echobelly, Emily Barker and Simone Felice, Annie will be heading out on tour around the UK, including a wealth of shows as support for The Trials of Cato and we can’t wait to welcome her to Village Concerts.

“Her words are intense and personal, contrasting with her understated, almost conversational, singing-style.” – AmericanaUK
