Charm of Finches bring soulful new songs to Oxford

DATE

January 28, 2026

This wondrous duo of Australian songbirds bring soulful new material to Oxford on Friday 27th February 2026.

2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for Mabel and Ivy Windred-Wornes – the award-winning Australian duo behind Charm of Finches.  

This month, the sisters will move to Glasgow for a year, immersing themselves in Scotland’s music, culture, and breathtaking landscapes, from the Western Isles to lochs and mountains, drawing inspiration for their next album, following the acclaimed Wonderful Oblivion. 

Having toured extensively across Europe, America, and Canada, the duo have built a devoted international following.

This year, being based in the UK will allow them easier access to mainland Europe, while continuing to develop their sound and connect with fans across the continent.

As part of their UK tour, Charm of Finches will perform on Friday 27th February 2026, at the historic St Mary Magdalen Church, OX1 3AE, just off St Giles near the Randolph Hotel.

Audiences can expect a mix of new material inspired by Scotland, alongside cherished favourites from previous albums. 

“The landscapes, the light, the people, everything inspires our music,” says Mabel.

“We can’t wait to share what we’ve been working on with UK audiences, and Oxford has always been such a special place for us.” 

Tickets already on sale, and with the duo’s ever-growing popularity, this intimate performance is expected to sell out quickly.

Local promoter, Geoff, encourages music-lovers to book as soon as possible to avoid disappointment and experience a night of haunting harmonies, storytelling, and the warm charm that has captivated fans worldwide. 

Charm of Finches’ Oxford date promises a soulful and unforgettable evening, and a glimpse of the duo’s exciting next chapter.
