Homegrown in Thornaby-On-Tees, brother and sister duo Cattle & Cane – Helen and Joe Hammill – started making music in 2015 and have released four albums so far: Home (2015), Mirrors (2017), Navigator (2019) and Golden (2023), accumulating over 40 million Spotify streams.

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut album Home, they are releasing their much-loved album on vinyl for the first time, as well as performing some special Home stripped back acoustic live shows across the country.

Cattle & Cane have shared stages with Tom Odell, Lewis Capaldi, Stereophonics, Madness and Brian Wilson, and sold out venues including Sage Gateshead and Middlesbrough Town Hall. Their music has received support from BBC Radio 2 and 6 Music, and Elton John on Apple Music 1. Away from the band, Joe is an award-winning songwriter for the likes of Ward Thomas and Robbie Williams and also composed the song 'Laudato Si’' that schools used as an action on their LiveSimply plan.

Alex Macqueen is a BAFTA-nominated actor, best known for his roles in The Inbetweeners, The Thick Of It, Hijack and Rivals.

Alex qualified as a barrister at the Middle Temple in London and was elected by the Inn as a Master of The Bench. In 2002 he began acting full time and has starred opposite Michael Caine in Paulo Sorrentino’s Youth, Kenneth Branagh in Sony Classic’s All Is True, Will Ferrell in Fox Searchlight’s Downhill and Hugh Bonneville in the Downton Abbey movie. In the New Year Alex will star in a new adaptation for Netflix of Agatha Christie’s The Seven Dials Mystery alongside Martin Freeman and Helena Bonham-Carter.

In November he starred in a 90-second spoof television advert for CAFOD, in collaboration with Richard Curtis’ Project Everyone initiative. The satirical commercial entitled 'Meet the World’s Loan Sharks' exposed the global debt crisis as tantamount to a pay-day loans scam. It was released on 19 November ahead of the G20 summit, with a special MP screening at the Houses of Parliament.
