indie @ temperance | John Bramwell ("I am Kloot")

We are delighted to welcome back the brilliant John Bramwell (I am Kloot) for his second performance here. It will sell out quick again

John Bramwell has been on a never-ending rolling adventure since his workings away from the cherished, Mercury Prize nominated Mancunian band, I Am Kloot . February 23rd 2024 marked the release of the acclaimed, sophomore album ‘ The Light Fantastic ‘.
Lauded across the board, ‘ The Light Fantastic ‘ is a masterclass in emotionally charged and melodically driven tunes for the adventurous. “After both my Mum and Dad died, I started writing these songs to cheer myself up,” John admits with typical candour. “The themes are taken from my dreams at the time. Wake up and take whatever impression I had from what I could remember of my dream and write that.” Despite the sentiment, the songs are surprisingly uplifting and have been lighting up, and selling out, countless live shows across the country.
