Experience Ellie Slorach live on October 27th

Ellie Slorach will be performing at The Glasshouse International Centre for Music in Gateshead, United Kingdom on October 27, 2026. Slorach is a contemporary folk musician known for her fingerstyle guitar playing, intricate arrangements, and lyrical storytelling. Her music often blends traditional folk elements with influences from jazz and classical music, creating a distinctive and atmospheric sound. She frequently incorporates open tunings and percussive techniques into her guitar work.

The Glasshouse, opened in November 2023, represents a significant investment in music performance infrastructure for the North East of England. It’s formed through the renovation and integration of the existing Sage Gateshead buildings alongside a new extension. The complex houses two primary concert halls: Sage Concert Hall (approximately 1,645 capacity) and Michael Hogan Auditorium (approximately 450 capacity), as well as smaller spaces for more intimate performances and educational activities.

The venue aims to be a national resource for musical innovation and talent development, hosting a diverse range of genres from classical and contemporary to jazz, folk, and popular music. It replaced the previous Sage Gateshead facilities while expanding upon their capabilities with improved acoustics and accessibility features.
