Jon Palmer Acoustic Band
Local folk-rock favourites Jon Palmer Acoustic Band return for their 10th consecutive annual show at Otley Courthouse.
The award-winning six-piece are renowned for their live performances and critically acclaimed albums. This year’s show will have a retrospective “greatest hits” feel, with fans invited to suggest songs via the band’s website. Mixing traditional and contemporary sounds, Jon Palmer’s soaring, memorable choruses are backed by a line-up of talented local musicians.
Their 2025 album Light Goes Low was widely praised, and the band continues to go from strength to strength.
