- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 11 Feb, 2026 at 08:30 pm
- **Event Description**: ? Get ready for a night of raw talent and heartfelt tunes at Albert’s Songwriters Showcase! ? Join us at Albert’s Shed in Shrewsbury on Wednesday 11th February, from 8:30pm, for an intimate evening celebrating the power of storytelling through music – and the best part? It’s completely free to attend!

We’re delighted to welcome two incredible singer-songwriters to the stage. First up, Barry Williams – the Shrewsbury-based troubadour whose debut album Open Book has been turning heads across the airwaves, including spins on BBC Introducing Shropshire. Influenced by everyone from Frank Turner and Manic Street Preachers to Taylor Swift and Kacey Musgraves, Barry blends emotional honesty with sharp wit, performing both fan favourites and fresh new material – all with his trademark storytelling charm.

Headlining the evening is the supremely talented Heidi Browne – a multi-instrumentalist powerhouse (guitar, piano, violin, banjo, flute, and mouth trumpet – yes, really!). With her 7th album now out, and accolades including Open Mic UK winner and radio play on BBC Radio 1, 2 &amp; 6Music, Heidi’s rich, genre-blurring sound has found fans everywhere from Caffe Nero playlists to major supermarkets and music venues up and down the Country. Her live performance is not to be missed – full of warmth, skill, and a whole lot of soul.

So grab a drink, kick back, and enjoy a night of original music in a laid-back, friendly vibe. Whether you're a long-time music lover or just looking for something cool to do midweek, Albert’s Songwriters Showcase is the place to be. See you there! ??

Tom Robinson, BBC 6Music 
'The writing is sharp and direct and the vocal performance is absolutely immaculate. What the audience wants to hear is somebody telling them a story – straight and direct, person to person, heart to heart. Girlfriend is a masterclass in how to do just that – in a radio friendly 2’39″ flat..'

Ruth Barnes, BBC Radio 4
'Heidi Browne has the kind of pop sensibility to make grown ad men weep!'

FolkCast 'summery, sweet-n-sour, soulful and full of sass!'
