September 2022 sees the launch of Gracious Wings, the 8th solo studio album by Jackie Oates. Jackie has once again been working with producer and sound engineer Richard Evans in Bath, to produce an 11-piece album of traditional English folk songs, self-penned material and the odd unexpected cover version!

In September/October 2022, The Jackie Oates Trio, featuring Mike Cosgrave (piano, accordion, guitar) and John Parker (double bass) will commence a UK tour to perform material from the new album. We're thrilled to be hosting an online date to allow fans everywhere to celebrate the album launch and hear this beautiful new music played live.
