For over 30 years, Boo Hewerdine 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 (Hewerdine wrote the hit single “Patience of Angels” in 1995).
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, Heidi Talbot and Hannah Rarity. His last album ‘Before’ was recorded with supreme Danish multi-instrumentalist Gustaf Ljunggren. It garnered multiple five-star reviews.
Since then, he has released a lockdown EP, Singularities and a new album on Reveal Records. He will be singing songs from his new album and his extraordinary back catalogue. A naturally gifted raconteur his gigs are always a total joy.
Of all this success, Boo says, “All I ever wanted was my name in the brackets. And it gave me this life”.
Boo Hewerdine is one of the greatest songwriter performers in the business and a unique talent. Ian Cripps.
