Clonmel World Music is delighted to host a rising star of the UK Country and Americana scene on her first Irish tour.

Savannah Gardner is a show-Woman from California who is bending the country music genre to her mighty will – blending blues, honky tonk & gypsy jazz into her big sound while keeping vintage and traditional country alive and well.

From the sun-soaked avenues of California to the streets of London, Savannah Gardner is redefining the UK country music scene with her soulful storytelling, raw authenticity, and a dash of outlaw flair. Savannah’s remarkable musical journey mirrors the evolution of country music itself—a genre that is as much about personal revolution as it is about infectious melodies.

Her London based band “Savannah Gardner & The Recovering Good Girls” are selling out venues all over the UK with their energetic and  theatrical show. Her old school/new vibe live performances are gaining a lot of traction in the UK.

Savannah will be over on a short Irish Tour promoting her new album. The Debut Album “Recovering Good Girl” is out
now. The album was produced in London  by Dale Davis, the legendary former bass player and musical director for Amy Winehouse.

The Recovering Good Girls are a close-knit trio formed in London’s bustling music scene. With Riley Hare, from Texas, on electric bass and Carmen Ruiz Vicente, from Spain keeping the beat on drums and backing vocals.

The group thrives on camaraderie, mutual respect, and an unwavering commitment to their craft.

An old soul with an exciting new sound, Savannah Gardner is rewriting the outlaw country genre. Her freewheeling, sometimes gritty, sometimes hauntingly beautiful songs speak to a new generation determined to stand up and be their authentic selves

Savannah’s special connection with her audience has earned her the UK AMA’s Live Act of the Year Nomination for 2025 and has won her slots at coveted festivals like Glastonbury, C2C London, Red Rooster, The Long Road, Static Roots in Germany. 

Since arriving in London from her native California, Savannah has championed the growth of women in Country & Americana music, leading the charge with her own brand of kick ass Americana and promoting monthly Ladies Nights featuring some of the scene’s most outstanding female talent. 

Her band of RGG’s bend the Country Music genre to their mighty will, blending soul, blues, gypsy jazz and honky tonk into a sound that is both unique and deeply rooted in tradition. SG & The Recovering Good Girls continue to spread joy, love and “bad-assery” across the venues and clubs of the UK.

Savannah has just released a beautiful new single, in February 2026, which is a universal song about loss

“They say that grief is just love with no place to go. This is for my mama. She loved to dance and loved a disco so we tried to capture her through this song. This is for her and for everyone who is missing someone they love. I’m with you.” – Savannah Gardner 17th February 2026

 

“Recovering Good Girl – I feel like that’s the theme of my life! I was always kind of a people pleaser, put everyone first before my own needs and happiness… I thought, I’m over that. I’m in my outlaw phase, wanting to live life exactly how I want to live it and pursue my dreams.” – Savannah Gardner
