Briggs & Stark are a rising Americana–folk duo whose buttery harmonies, intimate songwriting, and signature tickle of flute have quickly made them one of the UK’s most exciting new acts. Combining Briggs’ catchy americana hooks with Stark’s indie-folk storytelling, they create music that feels both contemporary and deeply relatable. Their debut EP Starting Something (2024) launched with a sold-out hometown show, while their reputation for connecting deeply with audiences has taken them to stages at Wickham, Weyfest, and The British Country Music Festival — where they were named “one of the most mentioned artists” of 2025. New releases due in 2026 show their momentum is only growing. With comforting songwriting, captivating chemistry, and a live sound richer than you’d expect from just two people, Briggs & Stark are guaranteed to leave festival audiences feeling right at home.
