Rodney Brannigan

8 Aug 2025 - 8 Aug 2025

The Texas-born troubadour who learned to play in Austin, perform in Los Angeles, craft songs in Nashville, and put it all together in London has played all types of music in all types of venues in his storied career. His adventurous, boundary breaking guitar playing (sometimes at the same time) earning him the title "The Two Guitar Man" has led to performance invites across American, India, Africa and Europe. in 2018 Michael Eavis asked him to headline the 15,000 people Glasto Extravaganza at Glastonbury Abbey, when Paloma Faith was forced to pull out - leading to a spot on the Acoustic stage at last year's Glastonbury Festival where he packed the tent and went down a storm! Rodney Branigan is one of the most amazing artists you will ever see. Not simply because he is unique, but rather because he is impossibly talented Music Connection
