Boo Hewerdine

Thursday 29th January 2015

For over two decades Boo Hewerdine has been a much loved performer making numerous critically lauded albums. But it is as a songwriter that his peers hold him in particular esteem, as was evidenced on his appearances on BBC's Songwriters' Circle and Transatlantic Sessions. Boo's new album "My Name in The Brackets" is a collection of his songs that have been recorded by artists such as Eddi Reader, KD Lang, Heidi Talbot, Kris Drever, Mary Chapin Carpenter etc.

Boo last visited Rothbury Roots in 2013 and in 2012 with Brooks Williams as half of State of the Union and I'm very pleased to have him back again. If you like a song with a lyric worth listening to and a tune you'll go home whistling then you'll love this gig.
