The Gin Joint is delighted to showcase the newest rising star of Bluegrass - Charley Castle and her band - One Night Only, Dec 10!

An award-winning artist and instrumentalist, standing at the meeting point of North American tradition and home-grown singer-songwriter spirit, she is blazing a trail through the progressive-acoustic world. Charming and infectious, she and her fast-picking trio of Boys exploded onto the national country music scene eighteen months ago, and haven’t looked back since.

With guitar, double bass, mandolin, and tight-stack harmonies, Charley marries old sounds with modern sensibilities, and has quickly become a favourite at major festivals, and as a touring support act for the likes of DUG (Grammy-nominated; IRE/US), Rainbowgirls (US), Kingswood and Fanny Lumsden.

Champions of the 2025 Tamworth Country Music Festival 'Best of the Buskers' Competition, the band has been touring the country top to bottom with this high-energy and feel-good live show. Charley drops her long-awaited debut EP, Charley Castle & the Boys in the Well, on September 25!

The Gin Joint is part of Enniskillen Orchard. Tickets are very limited and so is the parking.

A food pre-order menu will be sent one week before Show Date, orders must be in 24hrs by latest.
Doors open at 6pm, showtime is 7.30pm.
