Catch Western Heights live at The Old Cigar & Olive, Folkestone, on Saturday 6th September at 8pm – 11pm
Fronted by songwriter Toby Oakes, whose musical journey began with an NME Single of the Week back in 1980, Western Heights bring a rich blend of melodic, country-inflected pop/rock to the stage. Their songs weave together sharp storytelling, world-weary reflections, and a dash of sarcasm, all delivered with a wink and a wry smile.
The band features Oakes on guitar and vocals, alongside Kevin Richards (bass), Dave Robinson (drums), and recent addition Michael McKeown (lead guitar), completing a line-up that brings depth, warmth, and energy to every performance.
Expect a set full of character, honesty, and finely crafted songs made for these modern times.
