Robbie Cavanagh & The Whole Family – November UK Headline Shows

Robbie Cavanagh & The Whole Family – YES (Basement), Manchester – 27 November 2026

Robbie Cavanagh closes his November headline run with a hometown finale at YES (Basement) in Manchester, a room that has long championed emerging and established Northern songwriters. Joined by his full band The Whole Family, Cavanagh brings the tour to an emotional peak, performing with the warmth, grit and understated power that have made him one of the UK’s most respected Americana voices. The show follows the release of Tough Love, An Old Flame, his new EP of stripped‑back acoustic versions that spotlight the honesty and craft at the heart of his writing.

If you like Jason Isbell’s lyrical depth or John Moreland’s intimate, slow‑burn delivery, you’ll find Cavanagh’s music hits the same tender, reflective notes. Reviewers of previous shows have praised his “ability to hush a room with a single line” and “the emotional weight he brings to even the quietest moments.”

As Robbie puts it, “… 4 headline shows with new music and the full band in tow.”
