In association with Clubhouse Records and Inside Out Talent, “The Ramblin’ Roots Revue” has become for many one of the UK’s most eagerly anticipated and best-loved weekends of cosmic americana, alt-country, folk and roots in the annual musical calendar. It takes place, as usual, this year on the 10th, 11th and 12th of April at Bucks Students’ Union’s award-winning venue in High Wycombe, Bucks. HP11 2JZ. Early-bird tickets flew out, and Tier One tickets are now 90% sold out. The last few Tier One Full Weekend Tickets are available now at £70, before Tier Two at £80 go on sale. Day tickets will be available later in February.
“It’s brilliant to be able to announce the line-up for the next Ramblin’ Roots Revue. We have been blown away by the response to the early-bird tickets! We’re starting to see attendances surpass those we experienced pre-pandemic, and we are incredibly grateful for the loyal support we receive. It’s become a bit of a community, it’s such a great weekend, and we’re really excited by this year’s plans!” says Tristan Tipping of Clubhouse Records
Once again, the venue will be offering an extensive range of reasonably priced guest ales, artisan whiskies, and small-batch gin, all accompanied by some great food trucks across the weekend. Expect incredible live music with over 30 acts performing over 3 days, late-night jams, after-parties with specially selected DJs, a pop-up record store and a fantastic community feel as you’re surrounded by genuine music lovers and like-minded souls. Full details are available here.

And a special guest late Friday session announced on the night. And then there is the usual Saturday night tribute, and this year, The Clubhouse All-Stars tribute is to one of our favourite artists, Neil Young (& Crazy Horse), closing out the night, with a host of guest singers taking the stage to honour the great man in the year of his 80th birthday.
The festival is all held in Bucks Students’ Union’s award-winning venue, which has undergone significant refurbishment in the last 12 months and is the holder of the “Best Bar None” accreditation for customer service and corporate social responsibility, and has previously been recognised as promoting the leading live music provision in UK Higher Education. And to top it off, all acts on the two main stages are programmed so you needn’t miss a single note! Throughout the weekend, punters can be assured of staying warm and dry, with feet on firm ground and never further than 20m from key facilities including the stages, bar or BBQ! There’s free parking on site, and leading hotel chains are literally just across the road. The venue is fully accessible, and children are welcome up until 11 pm if accompanied by a parent or guardian.
Tickets are available here. Here’s some William The Conqueror in the meantime to whet the appetite:
