A Gig with Sally Crosby will occur on 14 May 2027 at books on the walls in Chester. The event features an acoustic performance by a singer-songwriter from rural Mid Wales. Tickets are priced at £5.00.
An acoustic delight with a singer-songwriter who grew up in rural Mid Wales.
A ukulele, piano and acoustic guitar-based singer-songwriter, Sally's songs are honest and raw, impassioned and emotive.
She studied Music and Creative Writing at university, specialising in songwriting. There, she found herself spreading her time between playing the violin in orchestras and with folk-rock band The Rambling Pilgrims, touring across the North Wales coast and Anglesey.
In 2013 her first single emerged and in summer 2014 she appeared on the festival scene with a packed-out schedule of dates across England and Wales including Wakestock Festival alongside Tom Odell, Frank Turner and John Newman; and FOCUS Wales, a festival with a focus on promoting young Welsh talent which she played three years running. Bucket of Leaves EP went live on Spotify and iTunes in October 2014 with her track 'Comet' receiving airplay on BBC Radio 6, BBC Radio Wales and BBC Radio Shropshire.
Sally's second EP 'All I Seem to Know How to Do Is Write Songs About You' was released in April 2017 and is heavily ukulele based. Her songs were previewed in a radio session and interview with Choice Radio in Gloucester. Sally went on to release many singles and later an additional three EPs, one of which is in Welsh. Her tracks have been played by a host of international radio stations keen on promoting indie talent. So far Sally has played a host of shows and sessions too with a view to promote under the radar talent, such as Oak Sessions, The Narrowboat Sessions and Sofar Sessions. In October 2025, Sally won the accolade “Song of the Year” with her track “Shooting Star” from her fifth EP courtesy of “The G Radio”.
