Ward Thomas Tickets

Ever since twins Lizzy and Catherine Ward Thomas were introduced to the sounds of Carrie Underwood, Alison Krauss and Dixie Chicks, they've had country music beating in their hearts.

The Hampshire sisters began writing their debut album in 2012 when they were 18 years old and still completing their A-levels. Released in 2014, From Where We Stand climbed to No.41 on the UK albums chart and all the way to No.1 on the UK country chart. It was also named UK Album of the Year at the British Country Music Awards.

Just two years later, the duo signed to Sony Music and became the first UK country act to score the No.1 album spot with their second release Cartwheels. Thanks to the emotional title track and catchy singles such as ‘Carry You Home’ and ‘Guilty Flowers’, Ward Thomas soon found themselves in the line-up for 2016's Glastonbury Festival, as well as landing the opening slot for 2017's Country To Country festival and playing in Groningen, Netherlands at Eurosonic Noorderslag.

For their third album, Ward Thomas went to Nashville where the siblings further honed their songwriting skills while also collaborating in London with Ed Drewett, who had written with One Direction, Little Mix and Olly Murs. Experimenting with their vocal cadences and harmonies, 2019's Restless Minds pushed new boundaries in their country-pop sound as well as tackling topics including the women's movement, social media and mental health.

Largely produced by Jonathan Quarmby (Lewis Capaldi, Tom Walker), Ward Thomas' fourth album, 2020's Invitation, was recorded during lockdown from their Hampshire cottage. Music In The Madness followed in 2023, securing the sisters’ fourth No.1 on the UK country album charts.
