Motel Sundown

Motel Sundown are an Americana band based here in Liverpool consisting of three songwriters, Karen Turley, Naomi Campbell and Robert Johnson. Formed in 2018, together they combine the sounds they grew up with such as The Beatles, Paul Simon and Bob Dylan, with three-part harmonies inspired by the likes of Fleetwood Mac and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young.

Since releasing their debut album in 2022, Motel Sundown have been playing shows across the UK both as a full band accompanied by piano, drums and bass, and as an acoustic trio. They are currently releasing music from their new EP which will be released in June 2024.

“The plan to open Strawberry Field to the public for the first time - so people can see a unique exhibition about the home, how and why the song was written by John, and allow visitors to explore the grounds as John did as a child - is very exciting.”
