"Who the hell is this guy and why isn't he on a major label?" Creative Loafing, Atlanta
“Sutherland conjures up that Americana magic. His songs have the pain, joy and hint of humour that make his art and craft authentic, whether on the banks of the Tennessee or the Thames” Americana UK
"Dave Sutherland continues to prove why he’s a standout artist in the UK Americana scene — honest, relatable, and deeply musical" UK Country Radio
Dave Sutherland
Dave Sutherland is a London based Americana singer-songwriter with nudges towards the Country Music genre. So much so, he was awarded 'UK Male Country Singer of the Year' at The UK Country Music Awards 2024. An accomplished performer filled with raw energy and emotion, Dave’s music speaks of life, love and London with the eye of an artist and the ear of a poet.
His latest album ‘Last Drop of Empty’ was produced by the American producer Stacy Parrish who won a number of Grammy Awards for his work with T Bone Burnett, Alison Krauss and Robert Plant on Raising Sand, and Jefferson Airplane/Hot Tuna’s Jack Casady who also plays bass on the album. It was released to worldwide critical acclaim and produced two Top 3 singles. It was also voted ‘Runner Up UK Americana Album 2022’ by the readers of Americana UK, reached the Top 25 of most played UK Roots albums across America, charted in the Euroamericana
charts, was listed as ‘One To Watch’ on the Alt. Country Charts in America and was nominated for ‘UK Country Album of the Year’ at the UK Country Music Awards 2022, where Dave was first awarded ‘UK Male Country Singer of the Year'.
Dave’s been treading the musical boards for 30 years, releasing his first record, ‘Navigator’ under the direction and guidance of Bert Jansch. A successful tour of America soon followed. His next albums ‘Comfortable Junction’ and ‘American Refrigerator’ cemented his popularity in the UK and elevated him Stateside with his US audience delighting in asking: “How can you speak like this and sing like that?” He was then signed by Martin Levan at Red Kite Records and his next album, ‘On The Waiting List’ was a commercial and critical success both in the UK and the US.
Dave’s shared the stage with artists such as Rumer, Slim Chance, Glenn Tilbrook, Ralph McTell, Billy Ray Cyrus, Al Stewart and Ian McClagan. His music is supported by BBC Radio and RTE Radio and is on numerous playlists across America. Extensive global
airplay has seen him achieve Top 5 singles in the UK, America, Denmark, Norway and Japan. He’s currently touring the UK, with a new album in the planning for 2025.
