Katie Spencer

Raised in the East Yorkshire flatlands on the fringes of Hull (UK), Katie Spencer’s landscape has always been that of open skies and widening rivers. It is this sense of space and movement that flows through her assured guitar style and songwriting. Now, as Katie steps into this new era with a third album, her focus turns to those deeper inner spaces, inviting the listener to engage with her heartfelt and intricately-crafted songs.

SeekOut Arts & Music Festival 2026

SeekOut Festival returns for 2026 After three wonderful years, local support has helped this festival grow into something truly special and we can’t wait to gather again for another magical summer weekend. Nestled in the stunning woodland of Gisburn Forest, SeekOut is a lovingly curated micro-festival, limited to fewer than 500 people, creating an intimate and welcoming atmosphere where everyone feels at home. The festival offers an exceptional mix of eclectic, high-quality live music, including national and local artists, alongside interactive art, theatre, wellbeing experiences and creative activities for all ages. Proudly created and run by loyal volunteers, SeekOut is a safe, relaxed and family-friendly environment. Children are free to explore, play and laugh, roasting marshmallows around the fire pit, making new friends and enjoying the simple joy of being outdoors.
