Right now Ward Thomas are on the last leg of their massive UK tour which has seen them perform at venues across the country and included their biggest headlining gig to date-The Shepards Bush Empire in London. They will wrap up their extensive tour on May 30th in Cambridge after performing to more than 18,000 fans during their stellar shows.
During their new Cartwheels tour the 23-year-old twin sisters have been wowing the crowds with their stunning vocals and spell-bounding harmonies and as their their current run of shows comes to an end we thought it would be a good time to look back at some our favourite Snug Sessions from the UK country duo.
Ward Thomas’ YouTube Snug Sessions sees them performing hit songs and timeless classics acoustically and putting their own unique twist on each song. Here are just a few of our favourites;
