HEIDI TALBOT & BOO HEWERDINE
Heidi celebrated 20 years as a professional singer in 2020 and released a compilation album featuring tracks for her last five solo albums. Her latest album ‘Sing it for a Lifetime’ recorded during lockdown with some stellar musicians across several time zones. She has shared the stage and recorded with Mark Knopfler, Graham Coxon (Blur), Idlewild, King Creosote, Tim O’ Brien and Jerry Douglas to name just a few.
Heidi has been nominated for folk singer of the year at the BBC Radio 2 Folk Awards and the Irish Music Awards. Joining Heidi on her this tour will be long-time collaborator, Ivor Novello award nominated singer-songwriter Boo Hewerdine.
For over 30 years Boo has been considered one of the UK’s finest singer-songwriters. As lead singer of seminal band, The Bible through to his subsequent solo work and long-time collaboration with the incredible Eddi Reader he has become something of a national treasure. He is in demand as a writer, producer and performer. Over a hundred of his songs have been covered by the likes of KD Lang, Kris Drever & Chris Difford. His last album ‘Before’ was recorded with supreme Danish multi- instrumentalist Gustaf Ljunggren. It garnered multiple five star reviews.
A naturally gifted raconteur with Heidi they have recorded and toured together extensively going back to Heidi’s first solo tour of the UK in 2005. Their duo shows are always a total joy.
