The sound of the century comes to the Izzy
Sunday, 4th October
7:30pm (doors and bar open 45 minutes before performance)
Isbourne Arts Centre, Winchcombe GL54 5LJ
The songs you know by heart, a few you’d half forgotten, and the candid, witty storytelling between them that makes a Tom McRae show feel less like a concert and more like a long conversation with someone who has been paying close attention to the world.
McRae’s critically acclaimed debut earned him nominations for the Mercury Prize, a Q Award and the BRIT Award for Best Newcomer. In the quarter century since, he has built one of the most quietly devoted audiences in British music across ten albums – from “Just Like Blood” and “The Alphabet of Hurricanes” to his most recent record “Étrange Hiver” – while resisting every fashion that might have made him more famous and every shortcut that might have made him less himself.
Following the sell-out full band tour marking twenty-five years since his debut album, Tom McRae brings his career-spanning solo show to intimate venues this Autumn – an evening of live music and storytelling that moves between the beloved and the overlooked, with the wit and honesty that has made him one of Britain’s most enduring singer-songwriters – alone on stage with a guitar and a catalogue that has quietly accumulated some of the finest songs in British folk and alternative music.
