Event information

Boo Hewerdine is the hugely talented and critically acclaimed singer-songwriter whose cult band The Bible still excites passion in DJs and other music lovers, despite disbanding in the early nineties.

Widely regarded as one of the UK’s best singer songwriters, Boo has consistently made his mark on the music scene and is one of the busiest gigging musicians around, playing upwards of 100 live shows every year. Sometimes referred to as ‘a musician’s musician’, his songs have been covered by over 50 other artists, including Eddi Reader (who recorded Boo’s Ivor Novello Award nominated song Patience of Angels), kd lang, Natalie Imbruglia, Hepburn, Marti Pellow, Swan Dive and Suggs.

He has produced records for The Corrs and David McAlmont, scored the films Fever Pitch and Twenty Four Seven and had one of his songs featured on the soap drama Emmerdale (during a particularly poignant death scene!).

“I challenge you to listen to Harmonograph and not become a Boo disciple. The ex-Bible man is nothing short of a revelation” (5/5. The Sun)
“Understated genius from criminally undervalued songwriter” (4 Stars. Uncut)

Inspired by Old Grey Whistle tests, Woodstock festivals and Pompeii Amphitheatres, Layla Tutt is a skilful songstress, fashioning tunes to groove to, tunes to move you. A lover of assonance and dissonance, she is thrilled by rhythm and rhyme.
