In Photos: Caitlin Rose + The Rockingbirds + Jonny Corndawg @ Scala, London (21.06.11)

We may have been smack bang in the middle of London's King's Cross, but last week's triple-bill at Scala had the air of a Tennessee juke joint about it. First up was Montana-born troubadour Jonny Corndawg, who set the bar pretty high in the fashion stakes (just check out those customised cowboy boots and guitar). Next came local honky-tonk veterans The Rockingbirds, who reformed a few years back following a thirteen-year hiatus.

But the night belonged to headliner Caitlin Rose. The Nashville-raised singer has country music coursing through her veins - both her parents are actually involved in the industry - and her fanbase has deservedly grown since debut album Own Side Now arrived last summer. The 23 year-old's rich, lived-in voice recalls some of country music's greats; indeed, she's already been compared to the likes of Patsy Cline and Loretta Lynn. Her razor-sharp between-song banter also raises plenty of laughs - our photographer Anni Timms managed to keep a steady hand for long enough to bring us the shots below:
