Ron's Honky Tonk with Mia Ramo, Pien and Laurence Kingston

Ron’s Honky Tonk brings a compelling lineup of distinctive country voices back to London for its final event of 2026 at Fabal Beerhall. This night blends the energy of proper honky tonk with the storytelling and emotive songwriting that resonate deeply within today’s country and Americana scenes.

Leading the bill is Laurence Kingston, celebrated as one of the UK’s finest advocates of traditional country music. Laurence channels icons like Buck Owens and Gram Parsons, delivering a sound steeped in honky tonk grit and the swinging pulse of classic Western styles. His live performances have featured prominent musicians including Dobro legend Noel Dashwood and pedal steel master B.J. Cole, crafting a rich, authentic experience for the audience. His latest album, Songs from Under the Weeping Willow Tree, released in July 2026, showcases 13 tracks that highlight his narrative strength and vibrant musicianship with songs such as “Dead Flowers” and “Time Don’t Change a Thing.” Laurence’s blend of twang, swagger, and heartfelt storytelling positions him as a lead figure for fans who appreciate country music’s golden era but want it fiercely alive and fresh.

Joining Laurence are Mia Ramo and Pien, each bringing their own unique angles on the genre. Mia Ramo moves fluidly between the UK and Nashville, infusing her debut single Mud on Your Boots with a modern Nashville-leaning feel combined with relatable British storytelling. Her warm, expressive vocals and candid lyricism reflect influences like Ella Langley and Megan Moroney, making her a rising voice in the scene ripe with emotional honesty and contemporary polish.

Pien, hailing from the Netherlands, enriches the evening with her indie-Americana sound that blends raw emotion with bold anthems. Supported by BBC Introducing and Dutch national radio, her songwriting bears the spirit of artists such as Fleetwood Mac and Kacey Musgraves. With a debut EP under her belt and performances at major London venues and top festivals, Pien’s presence promises heartfelt and compelling performances.

This final Ron’s Honky Tonk of 2026 at Fabal Beerhall captures a vibrant snapshot of UK and international country music talent. Delivered on a stage where live country music, good beer, and genuine storytelling intersect, the event offers a space for fans to connect with three artists pushing the boundaries of tradition and modernity.
