Two Ways Home Set to Dazzle at CarFest 2025’s Wigwam Stage

Two Ways Home, the dynamic Anglo-Austrian duo, will bring their unique blend of country, folk, and rock to the Wigwam Stage at The BarFest Arms hosted by Timothy Taylor’s on Sunday, 24th August. Comprised of songwriters Isabella from Vienna and Lewis Folkner from Gloucestershire, Two Ways Home have crafted a signature sound with catchy melodies, rich harmonies, and rocky guitars. Since forming in 2014, they have become a standout act in the UK country and Americana scene, winning Best Duo at the 2020 Country Music Spotlight Awards and receiving consecutive nominations for Best Band at the British Country Music Awards from 2021 to 2024.

Known for their captivating live performances, Two Ways Home have toured extensively across the UK and Europe, headlining shows at venues like Under the Bridge in Chelsea and performing at festivals. Their fan base continues to grow, thanks to their radio play across Europe and international performances. Their music, often compared to the sounds of Fleetwood Mac and The Lumineers, has also been featured in commercials and documentaries.

As they gear up for the release of their second studio album in 2025, Two Ways Home are ready to deliver an unforgettable performance at CarFest 2025, showcasing the best of their evolving sound.

At The BarFest Arms, Hosted by Timothy Taylor’s, the festival’s much-loved pub setting pairs great live music with award-winning ales, including their celebrated pale ale, Landlord and their session IPA Hopical Storm, alongside a wide selection of lagers, wines, spirits, and soft drinks. The Wigwam Stage is set to showcase a fantastic lineup of new artists and acoustic sets throughout the weekend. 

Now in its fifteenth year, CarFest 2025, founded by Virgin Radio presenter Chris Evans, continues to offer far more than just cars. The festival brings together six distinct experiences in one, including FoodFest for culinary enthusiasts, KidsFest for family-friendly fun, RetroFest for all things vintage, SpaFest for wellness and relaxation, StarFest featuring celebrity guests and expert talks, and, of course, CarFest itself for high-speed thrills and breathtaking car displays.

Beyond its entertainment value, CarFest remains dedicated to its core mission of raising funds for UK children’s charities. Since its inception in 2012, the festival has donated all of its profits to charity, raising an impressive £1.26 million in 2024 alone. The 2025 edition will continue to support vital causes, including BBC Children in Need, Ellen MacArthur Cancer Trust, Rainbow Trust Children’s Charity, Starlight Children’s Foundation, Teenage Cancer Trust, Young Epilepsy, and the local Hampshire hospice Naomi House & Jacksplace.

With an unbeatable lineup of live music, family-friendly entertainment, and an unwavering commitment to charitable giving, CarFest 2025 promises to be one of the summer’s most unmissable events.
