About this Event
Show Description
After years of shared stages, studios, and stories, Hannah Aldridge and Lachlan Bryan bring their deeply intertwined musical worlds to Europe this May for a series of intimate performances.
Their collaboration runs deep: Bryan produced and co-wrote Aldridge’s cinematic album Dream of America and appears on her recent Live Band record, while Aldridge has long been part of Bryan’s creative orbit. Together, they share a reverence for narrative songwriting, dark humor, emotional honesty, and the kind of songs that linger long after the last note fades.
These duo shows strip everything back to the bones — voice, piano, guitar, and two seasoned storytellers in conversation. Expect reimagined songs from both catalogs, shared stories from the road and the studio, and moments that feel less like a concert and more like an invitation into a late-night confessional. This is Southern gothic meets Australian noir, equal parts tenderness and bite, delivered by two artists at the height of their powers.

Hannah Aldridge
Raised on the muddy banks of Muscle Shoals, Alabama, Hannah Aldridge writes songs shaped by Southern mythology, rebellion, and self-reckoning. The daughter of Muscle Shoals legend Walt Aldridge, she began as a classically trained pianist before finding her true voice as a songwriter in her twenties.
Her records — from Razor Wire and Gold Rush to the live album Live in Black and White — have earned international acclaim for their blend of grit and grace. Aldridge’s ambitious album Dream of America expanded her sound into cinematic, noir-tinged territory, pairing haunting vocals with darkly romantic storytelling. Whether on a highway stereo, a European rock club stage, or a quiet listening room, Aldridge delivers songs that confront demons without surrendering to them.

Lachlan Bryan
Over more than a decade, Lachlan Bryan has established himself as one of Australia’s most respected songwriters — a master storyteller whether performing solo, fronting his band The Wildes, or collaborating in projects like The Pleasures with Catherine Britt.
His songs balance sharp social observation with deeply personal reflection, marked by dark wit, emotional depth, and a restless sense of romance. Bryan has toured extensively across the world, sharing stages with artists such as Justin Townes Earle, John Hiatt, and Shawn Colvin, while his albums with The Wildes have received critical acclaim and chart success in Australia.
Renowned as a captivating live performer, Bryan thrives in intimate settings, where his troubadour instincts and narrative command shine brightest — making this duo tour a perfect setting for his craft.
