Ida Wenøe and Samantha Whates

When Ida Wenøe and Samantha Whates take the stage together, it’s not your typical double headline show where one artist follows the other. Instead, they weave their performances into something far more collaborative and unexpected. 

The two songwriters combine their set lists into a seamless flow, often without revealing who wrote which song. This approach creates a narrative that goes beyond what achieves alone—an unfolding story that draws you in, song by song. 

Rather than stepping aside, they share the stage from start to finish, featuring on each other’s songs with harmonies, instrumental layers, and a natural ease that comes from genuine connection, respect and long-time friendship. Expect two full sets that are immersive, multi-instrumental, and brimming with warmth, love and laughter. 

One of the most striking aspects of their collaboration is how it defies the competitive edge often projected onto women in music. Here, you witness the opposite: two artists lifting each other up, creating space for their songs to breathe together, and celebrating what happens when voices, stories, and talents intertwine. 

This is a performance that’s part concert, part conversation, and wholly unique—an evening where the joy of collaboration takes centre stage.
