Grammy Award-nominated singer-songwriter KT Tunstall will be performing at The Suffolk on Thursday, Oct. 9, 2025, at 8 p.m. The Scottish artist, known for her 2004 multi-platinum debut Eye to the Telescope, has been a formidable force in the music world for nearly two decades. Her music spans an eclectic array of genres – from introspective folk to blistering rock and experimental electro-pop. Her live shows are known for their extraordinary energy and her warm rapport with the audience.
Tunstall’s breakthrough came in 2004 on the revered UK music show Later… with Jools Holland. Her stripped-back yet electrifying performance of “Black Horse and the Cherry Tree” propelled her to global fame. Her debut album, Eye to the Telescope, solidified her as a leading voice in the burgeoning folk-pop movement. Her music has been featured in iconic films like The Devil Wears Prada.
She has evolved from folk-pop ingénue to bona fide rock star, leaning further into guitar-driven rock without losing the melodic hooks that defined her sound. She has also expanded into composing for film and theater, with her music set to feature in Clueless, The Musical, which will make its West End debut in February 2025.
Next year, Tunstall will celebrate the 20th anniversary of her seminal debut album Eye to the Telescope with a series of special performances and a re-release featuring additional tracks. Tickets for the concert at The Suffolk range from $49 to $85, plus applicable fees, and can be purchased online at TheSuffolk.org.
